I've also noticed a sharp increase in those "SQL error" messages. Usually it says "server busy".

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Users with odd-numbered license plates will access Apolyton Sun, Tues and Thurs. Those with even-numbered license plates will access it Mon, Wednesday, and Friday. Saturday, those without license plates will be able to log on, but only for a two hour period, since all scheduled maintenance will be carried out on this day.

You know that if we all go Plus, they'll simply see the cashflow,
and introduce Apolyton Plus! Pro.
Where we'd have to pay even more money to get a reliable server.
And, once we're all on Apolyton Plus! Pro., we'll go to Apolyton Plus! Pro. extra

And so on until we're paying $20 a month for 'poly server access.

I'm not sure. Whatever it is, it had better be fixed soon.
And Gold-Plated servers? Why would you want your server case to be conductive to electricity...

Point taken, Ming. But half the folk I know don't go near these places.

Then again, I guess they're content to wait 30 seconds per pageview and do nothing.

So they'd constantly go down, and MarkG'd have an excuse to offer Apolyton Plus Pro Extra Limited Edition 2.0 for prices that make California real estate look cheap.

Well - it wasn't working before and there were only about 150 people listed as using the forums.

Unless someone was uploading mpegs, what's the deal?
