Update on what is happening.
I don't have much besides what I sent in the email/PM, but I thought I'd make a new stickied thread for updates and questions, so here it is.
As of right now, though, we have all the information that's needed posted here, with more than 24 hours of notice before the next file is due. Unless specific complications arise, the plan as of this moment is that Week 6 will be run as per schedule on Friday at 6:30am EDT.

Greg, here's a point of information.
I just got a notification that vbulletin just "posted" the RSS Feed of a new thread in the FOF2K7 forum. The thread was just posted a few minutes ago, so I guess that means that at least parts of the vbulletin backend are working just fine: it's still out there "looking" for the RSS Feed, and it put it in the place in the database where it belongs. Don't know if that info will be useful to you or not, but thought I'd post it just in case.

What's happened is vBulletin takes advantage of "mysqli" to do database access, and they've lost that functionality for us twice now.

I've said it to Ben, and I'll say it here: I can see the new control panel and this is a much nicer setup in the long run, but the conversion process has been a complete and total cluster, and I'm not happy about it. They screwed up some pretty fundamental things, and we weren't even close to being one of the first sites to go through this (hi USFL guys!).
Which has been a big surprise to me, given how good they've been in the past. We'll see how this goes, but if we end up needing a new host, then we end up needing a new host.

The forums came back up for about 20 minutes, but now appear to be down for everyone once again. Given the instability and seemingly-constant flux of the migration so far, I think everyone would be wise to keep this forum bookmarked at least for a while.

As of right now, some can get into the WOOF Forum, and some can't. I can't. Greg just posted this over there, though. (Received via e-mail notification)

Oh...and of course, HWK's is the *one* file I can't get to. If Greg can grab it, I'll go ahead and run the stage.

Looks dead to me, some PHP errors. You should sim anyway, I'm sure HWK will still score 42, instead of the usual 50.

We are still having issues at the USFL, as well. Although our forums have been working fine since the intial fix I had to make after the move, the user sessions are timing out too quickly on the ASP.NET site (in like a minute, instead of like 10-15 minutes as before).

They said flat-out in the e-mails that this was a new management team. They may not be in business for long...
