@ceagee I figured it was a fuku. I was tired so i just went to bed. Woke up an hour later and thankfully i was wrong. Had no regrets about getting my rest.
Sorry guys, I opened a bunch of forum posts in tabs and the site went down right after. Gonna stick to one tab at a time from now on. Don't want to confuse the little guys in the wheels.
Okay, I now sympathize for the people who have previously mentioned(in the forum) that they could'nt get on the site. It took me an hour an a half and I admit I even googled "Internal Server Error" to make sure it was'nt something on my end.
Pro tip: Always open the Twitter page at the same time, so even if you can't access meh, you know what you're missing. Facebook would probably work as well.
Ugh. The server issues caused me to miss my click yesterday. I was there at switchover time ready to click, kept getting the error, went to bed and forgot to check back in the morning. I was on my longest streak, too.
For the fact that I spent most of this month away from Meh forums in order to take care of something which should have been done years ago and would have saved me some mental anguish.
I place blame the fact that I've fallen victim to @narfcake s postings of different shirts from TeeTurtle.
For the fact that I don't like the quality of a T-shirt I DID buy.
For the fact that I didn't end up winning an auction for a 32Gb Nexus 5X on eBay.
For the fact that I didn't even end up bidding on said listing.
For the fact that a Snapple bottle started growing floating mold on the liquid in the bottle.
For the fact that I had to factory reset my Huawei Watch to fix something.
For the fact that a program I spent hours coding vanished.
For the fact that it wasn't until the night of March 22nd that I decided to write an IF recipe for Meh.
That an author on one of my favorite tech sites finally left. (Even though I knew about it happening for a little while.)
That I didn't end up Kickstarting Cyanide & Happiness's upcoming card game.
For the fact that even though the snow on Sunday missed my area for the most part, that we even got ANYTHING.
For the fact that a store forgot to give me extra BBQ sauce for something.
That I only found out on the 22nd that there would be a party nearly 200 miles from me on the 20th for someone.
@dashcloud@shawn I had a lot of trouble getting onto the meh forum in the wee small hours this morning, so maybe others were also having problems with the site. I could load the main meh page and the mediocre forum, but not the meh forum. Not sure how long the problem lasted, because I had other things to do, but I checked unsuccessfully several times over the course of a half hour or more.
@gio - I gave up after trying for a while, but I was just a little twitchy until I got back in this morning. I must be addicted to this meh support group.
I'm more so guessing that someone forgot to feed the hamsters.
Had a bit of trouble with mediocre.com tonight which caused meh.com to crash when accounts were signing in. Things are looking a bit better now.
@narfcake
And yes, I KNOW it's a hedgehog.
@shawn Good to know. Will there be an OHSHIT report tomorrow?
@FroodyFrog
http://shirt.woot.com/offers/runtime-error
@narfcake Probably not. I have super important things to do tomorrow. Like release Emoji to non-VMP members. https://meh.com/forum/topics/vmp-sneak-peek-emoji#56f042843d237db40e70cdae
@shawn
Dont blame me. I wasnt signing in, so in the clear.
I thought wow there must be an amazing two-for-tuesday I'm missing out on !
@ceagee DOUBLE FUKU!
@ceagee
Tuesday, so the server crash should have been a two-fer.
@shawn, step up your game pls.
@JazzyJosh @f00l I didn't know whether to be happy I didn't miss out on something wonderful, or be disappointed to see video monitors. meh.
@f00l It was a two-fer. Meh and Mediocre
@ceagee Always go with happy.
@ceagee I figured it was a fuku. I was tired so i just went to bed. Woke up an hour later and thankfully i was wrong. Had no regrets about getting my rest.
I wasn't upset that the servers went down. I was upset that I didn't see Something Went Terribly Wrong
Sorry guys, I opened a bunch of forum posts in tabs and the site went down right after. Gonna stick to one tab at a time from now on. Don't want to confuse the little guys in the wheels.
Spring equinox/first day of spring, with a full moon, no less. The gerbils got distracted.
Okay, I now sympathize for the people who have previously mentioned(in the forum) that they could'nt get on the site. It took me an hour an a half and I admit I even googled "Internal Server Error" to make sure it was'nt something on my end.

@KDemo
Been doing that the last few times that the site has had issues.
Just created a throwaway Twitter account so that I could create a recipe for IF to sent alerts to my watch with the daily deal. (Yay laziness!!!)
@FroodyFrog Not that having a throwaway Twitter is a bad idea, but you couldn't just set up http://mehstalker.com/ to email your watch?
@jqubed
A throwaway Twitter account accomplishes several goals for me.
@jqubed I found a app for meh. called pretty ok
Ugh. The server issues caused me to miss my click yesterday. I was there at switchover time ready to click, kept getting the error, went to bed and forgot to check back in the morning. I was on my longest streak, too.
C'mon, people, are you forgetting that this was clearly the fault of our scapegoat, @stardate820926?
@jqubed this months goat seems to have an invisibility cloak... it's really quite impressive.
@thismyusername @jqubed
I blame @stardate820926 for the following things:
For the fact that I spent most of this month away from Meh forums in order to take care of something which should have been done years ago and would have saved me some mental anguish.
I place blame the fact that I've fallen victim to @narfcake s postings of different shirts from TeeTurtle.

@FroodyFrog I think you just fulfilled the blame quota for the month.
As for 3., did the woot monkeys do a belly print again? You can complain about that to support.
@narfcake
My blame quote, or the quota for the goat?
That post was just a warm-up.
@FroodyFrog Quota for the goat. If this was just a warm up, be afraid, @stardate820926. Be very afraid.
@narfcake
It looks like people are still nervous about the site's brief outage from yesterday- http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ is one of the top referrers.
@dashcloud it was awol again earlier... but a lot of azure was awol so not sure it was meh's fault.
@dashcloud @shawn I had a lot of trouble getting onto the meh forum in the wee small hours this morning, so maybe others were also having problems with the site. I could load the main meh page and the mediocre forum, but not the meh forum.

@KDemo
Two for Tuesday doesn't mean you get to keep breaking BOTH sites, @medz!
