A direct message to me might be faster. Seems there is an issue with the server that houses the SQL database... I'll have to open a ticket with my ISP in order to figure out what is going on. According to their issue tracker there are no known issues.

Figures. Hopefully this will be resolved soon. If not I will make an announcement as soon as I can get the backup server running, which will not be until I get off work in 3 hours.

All I can say is keep trying, I'll announce here when I know it's back up.

The system should be back up now. At least I can get into it from 3 different locations now. It may be spotty though since godaddy (yes, I know. My hosting package is up for renewal next year and I'm jumping ship then) is apparently having issues today....

I still can't log on, will check back periodically. Any possibility of a deadline extension because of this?

(I feel like a dumbass for leaving this til the last day.)

As long as you are in contact with me directly, anyone who is unable to submit their entry today due to godaddy's outage (they're still working on it, but it seems like some things are coming back up) I'll let ya'll submit late. But you have to be in contact with me directly.

In the mean time, make sure your videos are ready to be uploaded. If need be I can open FTP accounts without the entry system and have you fill out an entry form later.

The system loads for me sporadically, and has been doing this ever since I was notified. So keep trying is all I can say at this point.
