Oh, and there's also this too. http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=27003.0

So many wonderful possibilities it could be. :whistling:

Post by: Jimmeh on April 01, 2007, 08:53:51 am: still saying server failed, so the vortex thingo isn't working
also, the updater is unable to find mirrors, althought my client is up to date.

Post by: neko kyouran on April 01, 2007, 09:03:37 am: Updater won't find any mirrors, ever. At least not until they set it up (currently, it's not)

As for the server being down.... http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=20037.0

Very first post. The server does crash from time to time. Perhaps that could be the case.

Post by: bilbous on April 01, 2007, 09:18:56 am: ya it is flaky at this end too so it is probably a temporary server problem
