Some unexpected downtime

[Pekka]

Server went unresponsive for about 2 hours before I got notified (I'm playing in Athens) and fixed it as soon as got a taxi back to hotel. BTW, getting a taxi in Athens is an interesting feat - the taxi drivers take several clients at once (an prefer beautiful women) and keep the meter running all the time. The traffic is also insane but simple grasp: there are no rules other than who honks first.

That sucks, what caused it....
What is with the taxi thing, so you are paying for the other clients??

[Anke]

Phew, thank goodness we're back, thanks for the sterling effort Pekka and Team :)

The other guy who was already there paid what was on the meter and when he was dropped the meter kept running and I paid what was on the meter... I guess it must be reset sometimes :)

I thought it was my computer...
glad everything is fixed.

Glad you got it fixed! Greece sounds mad! :D

[Pete]

Hmmm... Staying in a taxi with beautiful women or hurrying to the hotel to fix POTN...?

What a dilemma... ;)

Still a quick fix! The Greek / especially Athens' Taxi thing is a bit interesting. I couldn't believe my eyes the first time I saw it, but my Greek wife explained that it's how business is done there. They might also drop you off somewhere else in case they don't want to drive on a certain street.

Another traffic rule of Athens is that a one-way street means that you are only allowed to drive one way... at a time ;)

Try to survive Pekka! :)

Well, it's certainly more civilized than in Los Angeles where it's whoever can pull out their gun and shoot first! :) ;)
