YESTERDAY`S PROBLEMS
(3 June 2000, 12:50 | About) On Thursday night the ISP on which Gamestats relies was hit by a lightning storm. Some machines were trashed, but all data is safe. Our apologies to everyone for the loss of service, and our thanks to the GS people for coming up again so quickly(given the size of the problem). - MarkG

LINUX PORT PUSHED BACK
