On Sunday we moving to a new webserver.

This shared hosting had some limitations and we're now moving to a new one.

The change will happen between 10 am to 4 pm UTC (6 am to 12 pm EDT/SGT).

The DNS record will be updated, so you may land on the old website.

Note:
This doesn't effect ACSS/lobby, they will be still available.

Lowering dns ttl before making changes will help propagation. (then change to a higher ttl after)

and I'm pretty sure this goes here;
Das Ei will kluger als die Henne sein

For users,if you are on your computer while this is happening...
flush dns cache in microsoft windows
cmd
ipconfig /flushdns

or just reboot your computer if you think that's too scary.

The forum and DNS records are updated.

There are still issues with the forum/wiki bridge, but I don't think I'll fix it today.

Seems like some devices still have issues with DNS.

I had to reboot my phone to get the correct DNS record...

Refresh time is set to 1 hour.
