Whoa.  I really expected the numbers to start dropping after the book had been out over a week, like it did with Captain's Fury, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

Fred?

I'll report in on the numbers again in a week or so. :)

Saturday was our lowest number of impressions this month.  But it was a *weekend*, so that's not too shocking.  I've worked out a webserver-restarting script that may take care of some of the issues we've been seeing with crashes, so here's hoping from here.

Yay! That's awesome! Thanks for doing that.

(I noticed postings down from this end too, for what it's worth. It was Saturday, Spring is springing, you know?
If you are up to no good, please do no good for me too, okay?   ;D

Maybe Helen took a nap? :D 

And you ROCK for figuring out a way to automate restarts.  All hail Fred, savior of sanity!

To the Black Council threatening to overthrow the site/mods/betas/Shecky:  You need Fred.  Otherwise, the site will die.

Ok, so I will let the Black Council know...

Fred lives... we'll keep him in the basement near the gerbil wheel to keep the site running.

Priscellie lives... we need a face on the puppet regime, and her's is pretty.

Mickey and Ashton - speak now or your lives are forfeit... what can you offer the Black Council that will make it worth our while to let you live?? hmmmm??? *eyebrow*

Mickey lives.  Fred and I shall refuse to work without him, and without Fred the site shall die.

Ashton lives.  Because in order to kill him, you would first have to find him.

You're so funny, Priscellie.

As a matter of fact I did take a nap.  The child had her birthday party today.  It was the only sane choice.

And yes, Fred rocks. 

As for overthrowing the mods, I have no idea what you're talking about.  Assuming I did, you and Fred are in no danger.  MSD outlined our position, assuming we had one, perfectly.

Ashton?  You mean the Fist of the Site?  Uncle Heavy?  The Dude with the Iron Fist?  That Ashton?

Can we at least continue to manipulate events from the shadows if we promise to let you think you're still in control??

Please?

Yup.  The forum's own Uriel.

And Happy Birthday to Hawthorn!

Would an exorcist work?  Sorry.  Did I say that out loud?

Hawthorn says thank you!  She had a great time.

Dammit, I just realized this means no more backrubs from Nathan Fillion and Simon Pegg!
