Fine, back on topic. The PBS is back up, but it's an old backup.
We lost ~4-5 posts if that

My apologies. I attempted to merge the information from the backup database with our current database but was unable to restore post counts. If the matter is extremely important to you, you may PM me. Include the current post count being displayed. Allow for 1-2 weeks for us to manually correct the problems. Thank you all for your patience.

Just a question. When is the TWCT chat open?

It's always open, Pavel! You just show up. But to warn you, there will be some periods of inactivity. (Even I won't be around right now.)

I was asking because it just won't load right now. Maybe it's the school's network blocking it, so I'll try at home.

The chat client on our site uses ustream so most schools will block it. It is just a standard IRC chat if you are interested.

It turned out to be the school's network. The chat is working at home now. :happy:

Optimized a few things today. Forums should load a bit snappier

I see that we have a new "global announcements" feature on the forum for pinned topics and special news threads.  Martin and Jesse, are you all making some upgrades?

It was just a temporary thing that I wanted to get up for this event. Unfortunately I still have to custom remove some modifications before we can upgrade. With the next version of SMF being such a minor upgrade I have a hard time justifying putting a lot of effort into upgrading asap. The Holidays are a crazy time for everyone too. It definitely will be in the near future.

Logo rotation will be disabled until Friday, when I am able to alter the rotation schedule to better fit TWC's new schedule. The default logo will be up in its place in the override until then. I apologize for this inconvenience.

I am in need of ideas for a "Primed for Excitement" logo for TWC's Primetime events. I'm curious to know what you all recommend.

How about this: The TWCT logo being darkish blue or green (both would be fine as well), with the words "Primed for Excitement (tm)" on the bottom.

Don't ask me for a sample yet. This was something I was able to sketch on my drawing pad.
