Outage, Auction, and Glow

Tonight's blog post comes to you in three parts! (Read more)

Outage: Our hosting provider suffered another wacky outage when a cluster of 4 DNS servers all failed and the remaining servers buckled under the load for ~40mins just a bit ago. /sigh We are hosted at Rackspace and are paying top $$$ for what's supposed to be 1000% up time, but then there is always Murphy's Law. Grrrrrr!!

Auction: As many of you have probably heard there is an auction to benefit Mehgan, whose husband was very critically injured in a motorcycle accident last week. What you may not have heard is that myself and Dawnara are both up for auction tomorrow night! That's right! You can bid on spending an hour with either of us and we'll come visit, hang out, chat, etc. Just please, be gentle with us! :-D

Glow: Some peeps pointed out about how I once said "Roos would never have glow" and now Nocturnals will. Let me clarify... first off, I'm not the one in charge of graphic design, that's really Chimmy's area of expertise. But we all agreed early on, it would look out of place on the Diurnal Roos. However, with the Nocturnals, I think a little glow, tastefully applied at low values totally fit in with what are supposed to be cave dwelling species. So short story, things with Nocturnals are going to be different, and so things I may have said 8 months ago, may no longer apply. I still hate shine though, but maybe there will be a robot Roo costume at some point that needs it? lol
