oops... Sorry, I tried to put back the names function, but I guess there's another page that needs to be changed... so you have to wait until dodgy wakes up. Oh, the Huge Manatee! (Hm. that would have been a good user name.) - me, taz update: never mind

Also, I still think this is fun. To wit:

Haha!

I'm also sorry we didn't get Sweet Buttery Jesus and Ceiling Cat in the mix.

And, the time zones things kind of made it stretch on... But I promise, we won't do again. But I'm not promising we won't do something worse.

When I tried to make the change, the front page names came back, but the comments inside posts were fucked... so I think I can figure out what to do...

Hold your breath and let's see if I bork the whole site. (This will take a few minutes).

Oops. I somehow wiped out the username field for all the posts in the database. It looks like we've lost all record of who posted what. I am freaking out right now.

Oh, the hilarity!!!

Actually, the site hosting did a backup at the exact same time I was changing files. That was surreal fer real.

You did it, Taz!

Yay for stupid, silly names! Yay for silly admins who love us!
Yay for the Mudpuppie Rant Defense of Same!

I love this place, and welcome further weirdness with open arms, anii, and breasts!

Again, fuck it! Next time there are zany antics in the offing, drop me a line and give me a warning! There I was sitting at Adelaide airport for two hours with free wireless broadband and I drank instead of coming here!

omg! Drinking instead of metachat? Metachat instead of drinking?

No one should ever be forced to make a decision like that. It's too cruel!

posted by taz 19 May | 01:09

Well, I would have done both, but I had a co-worker with me and, as her team leader, felt an obligation to amuse her. Seeing as I don't share MeCha with anyone, the only remaining choice was drinking. Given the shitty flight I had, drinking turned out to be the right choice.
