verynice, where did you see that? The only reference I saw to anything other than the engine being down was a 12-hour outage. No games will be simmed after the Tuesday AM cycle until the Thursday PM cycle, but they don't expect the site to be down most of that time. It wasn't clear whether the entire site outage would be Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, so I didn't want to push the start of the clock back to Friday. As noted in my sitemail: "If the forums become unavavailable for any length of time, the clock will be halted and no picks will be missed until a new draft schedule is posted."
Doing it that way lets us proceed as far as we're able. When the forums come back up, we'll pick up off the clock and I'll send out a new schedule, finishing that round the next day and then returning to a normal draft schedule.
