Yeah, dont let her get used to it. Better for her to not know what she is missing.

To be fair, this does explain the 1B playing 2B.... depending on how old she is...?

Only if you were to believe the original announcement. Silly you, pb! As far as I can tell, only the GM's Offices are closed down. What I know about computer systems fits on the head of a pin, so how a massive hardware upgrade can be implemented with only a partial shutdown is beyond me.

We'll be lucky if they get everything back up by 8PM Eastern tomorrow. I'm not holding my breath.

The adjusted World Schedule in BTP has everything pushed ahead 48 hours -- except Rule V, which now falls in the middle of free agency and coach-hiring. It could just be a record-keeping error, but wouldn't it be fun if it actually played out that way?

Everything is back up and faster than ever!

jsturgis5866 -- we had missed updating the date for the Rule 5 Draft on the World Schedule view. That's been corrected. Thank you for pointing that out.

That went pretty smooth tzentmeyer; you guys did a great job as always.

Wow... much faster. Its much more pleasant a site to navigate!

so will the worlds still sim around their normal times or earlier now? guess we'll find out today

So now that the site is significantly faster, I can get in, do what I need to do, and then mess around for just as long as it used to take, before getting out.

everybody's else's world messed up? in matthewson the games aren't being shown as having been played on the world office home page and random players are missing from the pitching staff and lineup pages. it makes it a little tough to set a lineup when a couple players are just nowhere to be found!

A couple? My ENTIRE TEAM is missing!
