Chipmark Downtime Planned for Dec. 26
December 19th, 2007 by ZakAs the title says, Chipmark will be unavailable for a period of time, beginning December 26. The system will be down from 10:00PM on the 26th until 6:00AM the following day. The reason for this is to correct the cause of the previous two unplanned outages: faulty electrical equipment in the system which supplies power to the network closet where the Chipmark servers are housed.
We apologize for all of these outages. Hopefully the cause of all the problem will be fixed, and this will be the last. Luckily they have scheduled it for a time when the impact on Chipmark users will be minimal. I just wanted to pass this message along to everyone, so hopefully nobody will be caught off guard.

Yep, the forum was down, too. Everything on chipmark.com was in the dark all night.
We went offline around 9:00 PM last night (December 26 2007), and everything came back to life around 8:05 AM today (Dec. 27). Looks like chipmark is back, the website is working, and both the forum and blog are working fine.
Let us know if you have any problems!
