The entire mee.nu and mu.nu kingdom has been in an alternate universe for the last several hours. I have no facts, but if I had to guess, I'd guess we had a major hardware failure and it took this long to swap in a new server and restore it from backups.
Pixy obviously has been hard at work on this, and applause for that. He got Ace and the Jawas back up first, and that's completely proper. They're paying customers, and I am a freeloader.
Right at the moment I'm still having problems loading things like pictures, but I'm sure that Pixy knows about that and is continuing to work.
So here's an attaboy, Pixy!
UPDATE: And even as I was composing that, he got the rest of it working. Pictures now load properly.
UPDATE: Pixy has posted a status update.

In theory everyone would have been back up at the same time, except that there was a corrupt table in the mee.nu database that took a while longer to repair. Once I'd found that, all was well.
The next release of Minx is planned to be distributed - balanced across two or three smaller servers, so that no one outage can take down the whole system.

At Chizumatic, we take pride in being incomplete, incorrect, inconsistent, and unfair. We do all of them deliberately.
