Hey, is the sandbox down for good? It'd be nice to have access to those threads sometimes.

No, definitely not. It'll be back. I'm just trying to work out the best way to do it -- this server might not be big enough to run both simultaneously (that was the cause of the serious slowness when I first turned this on a couple of days ago)

Are you planning to have it up as read-only? It'd be the best way to go.

Not for the sandboxers!

(on whom I totally barged in without asking)
sandboxers = all of us?

stet, while/if you're here: can you pull the sandbox thread "THE 2011 ILM SUPER-MEGA YEAR-END ALBUMS 'N' TRACKS POLL™ is open for nominations" out of the database? We need to go through it in order to compile the nominations spreadsheet, and voting is supposed to start in a couple of days.

Saved a sandbox thread to disk before the shutdown for just this reason.

what's happening with the flag post?
― Mark G, Wednesday, 4 January 2012 00:29 (twelve years ago) link
It's only just stable, and there's some stuff that still needs fixed for Amazon. No code changes till that's all done.

Thanks for agreeing to pull that Albums/Tracks noms thread, stet. You remain a king among men!

Thanks stet!

Um....I think the bookmark clicks aren't working in the new ILX. I bookmark something but it doesn't change the list at the top...

Oh sweet, it was fixed since yesterday, nevermind! Carry on the good work!

hey who was it on sandbox who was into starting/arguing on a slow/boring/contemplative-cinema thread. i am into it but i am probably not going to get around to starting one anytime soon so if you have any provocative opening gambits, go for it
