Does anyone know what had happened? Downtimes of about one day are quite unusual ...

I setup a backup on Discord where we can share update status when down if needed. https://discord.gg/cN6DcT The mods can have control of it.

Amen Brother...thank God talkchess is back! Called the phone# this morning and a gentleman told me bridge construction
had cut the optical network cable and it had been out since weds..Immortalchess net is also down (how long?) so with both talkchess and immortal chess down...you quickly run low on your chess forum options!! :D :wink:

Ditto here - just two days and it started to feel like a part me of had died - it was weird! Plus I was getting really weird messages from macOS Safari was providing me some severe alerts that led me to believe that perhaps the site was perhaps hacked - until I saw somebody's note that the Fiber Optic was cut. Glad all is well.
