He seems to be VERY busy...

He said in an email to me last week that he would try to get back here soon.

Arunas · « **Reply #26 on:** April 02, 2009, 02:18:09 PM »

Starting tomorrow until the April 13.

I will be away all of next week, Sat 2nd May until the 10th, I've only got a couple of (seemingly unsolvable) puzzles on here at the present, so if there are any guesses you will have to be patient.

I have lost my computer and I don't think I'll be able to get a new one sooner then August/September. So until then my answers will be extremely late I'm afraid.

This is horrible.

Anything we can do to help, I mean it, you let us know.

A complete melt-down? All files gone?

Hope it's not that disastrous!

All,

I am experiencing some technical difficulty at home. I have not been able to access the site since Sunday. I can access the site forum from my computer at work, but can't spend a lot of time doing this. I'll reply to posts in my puzzles as time allows.

Thanks!

Not a melt-down. It got stolen

So I'm without computer until I buy myself a new one. And I don't think I'll be able to do it earlier than September. Until then I have to rely on using internet while visiting friends (or maybe I'll find myself new job where I have time to do it at work).

I am so pissed off for you. What a shame.

Allemano · « **Reply #34 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:20:13 PM »

I second Ultra's comment. Would be a complete nightmare for me!

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #35 on:** May 26, 2009, 04:50:56 PM »

Wow - that stinks.

FYI, I'll be limited to early-hours access only, for a 2-to-6 week period, beginning tomorrow. I've been asked to go on-site and hold a customer relationship together while a new delivery team is assembled. Heavy on-site firewall controls (can't even access Google, from what I've been told. Hopefully, it's not that bad). Regardless, I'll be in a very public cubicle, with VP level customers walking by constantly.

So, I'll be around, but not outside of the wee hours, Michigan USA time.

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

This is what I'm getting the whole day... $:-\$

My apologies.

We are going through our bi-annual slow database time. GoDaddy has already been contacted and their only answer, as always, is to try and upsell me to a virtual dedicated server. Expensive. Be patient and in a day or two at most it will be back to normal.

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #38 on:** May 27, 2009, 12:17:53 PM »

It's OK, I was afraid there was a problem with my PC!

Ray B. · « **Reply #39 on:** June 01, 2009, 03:58:54 AM »

I may experience a strong case of of slow answers until the 6th, guys.

faksta · « **Reply #40 on:** June 11, 2009, 10:27:11 AM »

Heeeey!
It's been a long time since I was here, but thanks to some of you I'm back!

Don't hesitate to relieve some of my puzzles you might have posted before and that were left unresponded.

Allan L · « **Reply #41 on:** June 21, 2009, 04:04:16 PM »

I've no puzzles posted, so it doesn'tmatter but I shall be offline for a bit as I'm moving house (first time in over 58 years!) and the phone cannot be reconnected immediately (same town, same exchange) although it was possible in days gone by, but now in this technological it's all too difficult and the broadband follows 14 days later . .

Some of the rookie puzzles I have my eye on will have come and gone before I can pitch in with an answer

One day, in the not too distant future, this site will be just as important to the rare auto connoisseur as the Beaulieu Encyclopedia

getting broad band soon and then i can tackle the 309 pages of unread answers.
as nearly all are interesting to me

Allemano · « **Reply #43 on:** June 28, 2009, 06:44:24 AM »

Apparently several comments remained unanswered for a long time. (some are older than 2-3 weeks, look esp. at rookie, expert and pro puzzles)
Would it be possible to check it out? Thanks!

I expressly don't mean the posts of @re who wasn't online for weeks. He seems to be temporarily unable to find time for this board.

I only think of those who are frequently and constantly online here.

Ray B. · « **Reply #44 on:** July 02, 2009, 05:42:39 AM »

My turn. Expect one week of slow answers, or no answers at all.

ImpishGrin · « **Reply #45 on:** July 18, 2009, 01:01:48 PM »

I'm officially back. Maybe not on an everyday basis yet, but I'm gonna pop up here every few days. The amount of unread posts however, scares me totally

D-type · « **Reply #46 on:** July 22, 2009, 06:59:42 AM »

Can I repeat a suggestion I made earlier

Quote from: D-type on February 08, 2009, 04:15:01 PM

I accept that there are circumstances where people have to be away from the forum. Can I suggest that when this happens they advise a moderator or one of the regulars and ask them to keep a watching brief on their puzzles. Otherwise the whole purpose of the site is defeated.

Today, four weeks after moving house, broadband has reappeared.
I shall have to do a bit of catching up, but there are more pressing things as it's the height of the season for using (and therefore maintaining) ones old cars!
