It just took about half an hour for h2g2 to acknowledge my existance.
Anyone else having problems?

This is, as of about ten minutes ago, the first time I've been able to log in today, since trying this morning.
My detailed investigation of teh problem, reveals that there seems to be a problem with the server.
On closer inspection I think I've found the problem.
A small colony of sparrows appear to have nested in teh server, and a twig is affecting the flux-capicitator.
What was that?
Geggs Posted Mar 3, 2004
Yep. That would explain it. Though I suspected it involved transverse hyper-spatial conduit, myself.

Hmm, you could be right... cues me whilst I run a qck diagnostic...
Ahh, yes, just there, It appears there is some bird muck on the transverse hyper-spatial conduit, and what looks like a dead pigeon, laying half on it and half on the interstatial bandwidth pre-modulation pericobulus...

Probably Jimster or one the italics re-arranging the fridge magnets on the servers.

You mean they were altering the magnetic field density balance? That'll knock yer hyper-statials right out that will.

No kidding, and if they ain't careful they'l completely throw the ionising radiometric balance knob off the spec, and that won't do the Hyperpostistic parabular threadalyser any good whatever way you look at it...

Geggs Posted Mar 3, 2004
Not the threadalyser! Oh, the trouble these people make with their good natured tinkering. You really need a good micro-spanner with a transchronic digitiser attachment to do any good to those things.

Would it of been any use if they'd tried reversing the polarity?

Geggs Posted Mar 3, 2004
That only any good when mucking about with the neutron flow.
It's pretty much useless otherwise.

Just so long as they didn't cross the streams - we should all be fine.
