You can read about it here.

(This has been a public service announcement designed to calm present and future jitters.)

We already knew that, SK.

We've been preparing ourselves all day stocking up on booze and tranquilizers.

I didn't know about it until just before I posted the thread. Figured it wouldn't hurt to warn others of the impending doom!

It will be down until Mac gets $5000 (USD) worth of paypal donations right? And you can send your donation through my account if you like, ofc.

I was thinking that some members who weren't online today might try to log in tomorrow and won't be able to. They'll think the world is coming to an end.

I came across the announcement by accident while reading another thread. I immediately raced back here to share the news. There's no telling how many lives we may have saved tonight...

Oh, my, it's gonna be a heavy chocolate intake weekend for me, that's for sure! Bet AW will look even more beautiful, though. :)

Quoting Mac:
I'm planning to pull the plug tomorrow morning, and we'll hopefully be back online by Sunday afternoon -- or by Monday afternoon, in a worst-case scenario.
And if you think that's bad, one time the site went dark for a couple of weeks! But that was a long time ago, and for different reasons. :)

I guess I can wait that long=]
Once this site is back up, I will post my new first 1,000 word count sample of my story.
Though it has just been mostly edited further and proofread.

Pfft. I have Lori on MSN. We're going to spend the weekend shooting for 10k days and plottering and scheminating our next projects.

Amen to that. I'm shooting for 10K tomorrow, probably another 10K on Sunday. If nothing else, that'll get me through my current WIP so I can start on the next one that's driving me batty.

I am an anti-christ
I am an anarchist
Don't know what I want but
I know how to get it
I wanna destroy the passer by cos I

I wanna BE anarchy!
No dogs body!

Anarchy for the U.K it's coming sometime and maybe
I give a wrong time stop a traffic line
your future dream is a shopping scheme

cos I, I wanna BE anarchy!
In the city

How many ways to get what you want
I use the best I use the rest
I use the enemy
I use anarchy cos I

I wanna BE anarchy!
THE ONLY WAY TO BE!

Is this the M.P.L.A
Or is this the U.D.A
Or is this the I.R.A
I thought it was the U.K or just
another country
another council tenancy

I wanna be anarchy
and I wanna be anarchy
Know what I mean
And I wanna be anarchist!
Get PISSED DESTROY !
