Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

[Dark music plays in the background as the immensely large Xel'lotath's Black Guardian sways side to side to the mid-tempo rhythm, as she sings the bridge part to her latest original song... She waits for some who may want to collaborate with her, for scenes and inspiration for more song ideas.]

We will dance in the chaos,
Unlocking forbidden inspiration.
We shouldn't let anything prevent this...
Shaking up Little Ones with determination.

We will dance in the chaos,
Unlocking forbidden inspiration.

Shaking up Little Ones with determinationnnnnn!

[Breathy inhale-exhale-inhale-exhale-inhale-exhale. From here, she proceeds to sing the final round of the chorus.]

Chooooose me, you creative little thing~
Chooooose me [inhale-exhale, inhale-exhale]
Chooooose me. My best performance I'll bring~
Chooooose me. Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-choose me!

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
