Was about to reply to your PM, but it's probably better to do so here:

The error you get indicated the problem is somewhere between you and the server where the site resides. When you say you tried multiple computers, does that include multiple locations and ISP's (it could be an ISP is doing a bad job translating the URL into an IP address for you)?

Open a commandline box (on windows: start->run->cmd) en type:
ping www.midgardbb.com and see if it can find an IP addrees for you.

If its a network issue then PING is good

Code: Select all

C:\Documents and Settings\Ian>ping www.blood-bowl.net

If that doesn't work (i.e. you get something like this)

Thanks all - I've tried multiple computers, so it does seem to be a server problem. Will try pinging later. Made it on with a proxy server, in the mean time. All a bit technical for me though!

I can't seem to get onto the MBBl site today (1st April)-it just gives a debug screen?

Darkson · Post by **Darkson** » Tue Apr 01, 2008 6:47 pm

Yep, like that yesterday evening as well - email already sent to Galak.

sann0638 · Post by **sann0638** » Fri Apr 18, 2008 11:12 am

Same again - debug screen.

Galak's told me how to fix the problem, so I'll get to it as soon as I can.
I only fixed it yesterday

I'll see if I can find a more permanent solution. Thanks for the help Darkson.

I've been struggling to get on the site for about 3 or 4 days now, what should I do?

What do you mean?

Just checked and its up.

And I don't see any unresolved emails of folks asking for access approval for their logins.

Basically one day I tried going to the fumbble website and i wasn't able to get to the website (i.e. it wouldn't load.)

Any advice on how to sort this out would be most appreciated.

FUMBBL and MBBL are totally different leagues.

FUMBBL has been down for over a week and will be so for another 2 weeks or so as Christer (the guy who runs fumbbl) is moving house.

I dunno about MBBL, but i've just logged into the site and it's seems to be working fine.

I can field that one.... MBBL is nothing to do with FUMBBL. Nothing, actually we hate each other (well, not really).

FUMBBL is temporarily down due the site owner moving house, there are several threads about it spread over this site

While it is down we have set up an alternative chat channel and continue to play some games during the downtime. Check out this thread.
