SUM FUN... Eh? Sorry for the server crash. But its over

TDPRI · November 16th, 2004, 02:12 PM

Well, we didn't really crash the server, but overloaded the database. But I was able to restart the server and we made it through.

Thanks to all that contributed and CONGRATS TO ALL WINNERS!

Thanks again,
Paul Green

A set of nice guys there who deserved to win those great prizes.

Of course, these drawings make me wish I knew everyone's actual given name. Nicknames are great, but I like to get to know someone by calling them by their given name. (But, because of online security issues and identity theft concerns and all that...I understand.)

Anyway, I digress--enjoy those prizes, fellas!

Just wish I was one! :)

To add a little suspense, right after Paul posted that the drawings were commencing, I settled back in my chair, and my foot unplugged my power strip!!!!

That was the longest reboot of my life!

Congrats to all the winners!
Those are terrific prizes.

Boy, that is some fun! I enjoy watching the winners get posted. Too bad we have to wait a whole 'nuther year for the next one.

Oooooo...I'd luv to be there but would have to go from Andi to Cindi(surprise, folks!). Um, so I guess I've been just using someone else's REAL NAME, eh?...Which reminds me, is it possible to change one's ID, or would one have to start over with a new profile? Anyway, that's cool...What newbie would be counting posts, anyway?

I'm fine just being a part of the TDPRI, really.

Anyway~
Congrats, people....If paying from here was easier(I don't use credit cards out of fear of what they and I would do at the dept store!), I just might be among you. Great work on keeping the tele-fire alive.

server little crash apart (something that could occur, so that occured eh eh) it was fun. I had the time to watch at the drawing at the office, than I connected again when arrived home, the server issue was already over.

We all thank you once more, Paul, our friend & hero!
