		<description><![CDATA[Site was down for a couple of hours. It appears like the HDD where the main database was located has some bad sectors already. This caused some database issues, which also affected the game servers in the process. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s the kind of error that my automated scripts are not able to detect, so the games [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My latest project has a dedicated Flash policy server. Basically, this speeds up the initial connection to the bingo game servers. The good news is this is also usable on HeyBingo. The changes have been live in half of all the bingo rooms yesterday for initial tests. Today, all the rooms now benefit from it. For [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the servers became unresponsive yesterday. Since that is where the entire database was located, the site and all the games have been affected. I estimate total downtime to be around 30 minutes or so, before I got things back to normal. I have been experiencing this issue in the past, however it usually [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I&#8217;ve noticed that more players are reporting that they are not receiving their registration codes via e-mail. Upon further investigation, it looks like the problem started last March 3, or 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s only now that the problem is being resolved. Microsoft has apparently blocked my server from sending e-mails to any [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have not been very happy with my dedicated server host lately. I&#8217;ve been with them the past few years (since this site has been launched), and things have been generally smooth, but they have undergone recent changes and I felt the service has been going downhill since then. They have also increased prices, so [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a power outage at my dedicated server host provider. They have fixed the problem, although they are still investigating the cause of this. Unfortunately, when my servers became available again, the one holding the player database was having connection issues when it came back up. I have written maintenance scripts to successfully recover [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the servers has been having issues the past 1 hour or so, so about 1/3 of the game rooms have been affected. I have made a temporary set-up, so all the rooms are now back online. I am still waiting for a status update from my hosting provider about what happened to the [...]]]></description>
