Could not get to it that last 2 or 3 days. I was just curious about what happened.

You obviously missed the thread about the inferiority of CP athletics :eek: .

It was down for a few days - not sure why - all were missed.

We've had an unbelievable string of bad luck with this thing over the last few years...

Basically, what happened is this...

Back in December when our traffic crashed the old server and we had to move to the new server, we were told we had to switch our DNS nameservers in order for the url, 5atexasfootball.com, to point to the correct server. We did that, and even received an email from our host that the nameservers were changed and that everything should work...It did...for nearly three months with no glitches.

On March 1st, for some unknown reason, something happened behind the scenes that caused our nameservers to reset to the old values, which caused the "Page could not be found" to pop up when people tried to access the site. We had to reset the nameservers AGAIN. It takes 36-72 hrs for the nameserver changes to propogate throughout the internet, which is why the site was down for 2 days.

Alas, we are back again and we don't expect any more interruptions...although that may ring hollow with alot of folks given the repeated issues we've been having lately.

All I can promise is that we aren't going anywhere, and if the site gets knocked off for whatever reason, we will get it back up.

Are you kidding me? I'll be surprised if we don't reverse the score from last year :D

Good job once again kt's! Thanks for the hard work.

I blame the 15 page wide-e-wide name-guessing thread, or Al Qaida - one of those two.

We're just happy the board is back up. And again, we wish to thank the KT Brothers for making this resource available to all of us.

Ah, geek speak. English translation: every now and then one of the KT boys likes to hit the little red button just to let us know who is in charge around here. ;)

If the terrorists couldn't take the site down, then a little server issue sure won't. And I like when champ uses the word "Alas". Good to be back in the saddle.

Tim Hardaway hates it when champ says "Alas".

Glad you guys arent going anywhere. I got home from the bar on Wed night and started to panic, thought I had done something to my computer, on Thursday I thought you guys had figured out how to ban my drunk butt from even getting on the site :D
