Description: N/A
Wavelength, and all the other sites hosted on Wavebot (the name of the server) are moving to a brand new data centre, and a brand new server. We'll have lots of disk space at our new location, so lots of growing room for the neat plans we have. Now for the bad news: the move entails a few days of down time, while the DNS updates. The website will be taken offline at some point on Monday (August 2nd) evening. The website will pop back online the moment your ISP updates its DNS, which usually takes 24-48 hours.

update: If you can see this, you are seeing the new server.

Forget this DNS crap, just give us the direct IP! We're hardcore like that!

Posted By: Bulk on Jul 30 2004 at 19:04:51
only problem is the site wont work with IP's because of the subdomains :/

I suppose while its down, we could play Doom 3 :D

Indeed!

It's back! Yay! What new features can we expect with all this added space etc?

The birds are flying south...?

Haha, nice rkzad.

So this new server is for the coming of something on a grand scale?

Wavelength 4.0!?!?

Posted By: Bulk on Aug 04 2004 at 23:24:18
NO ONE SAID THAT. STOP LOOKING AT ME! GO AWAY!

Posted By: pplante on Aug 04 2004 at 23:37:48
wavelength will fold into itself before 4.0 is released...

Posted By: Zipster on Aug 05 2004 at 02:57:26
A good name for 4.0 might be... SquareWave! Ha HA, science joke!

Posted By: rkzad on Aug 06 2004 at 01:38:54
There will be no Wavelength 4.0.

Posted By: Bulk on Aug 06 2004 at 11:52:57
Numbers are so passé.

As is taking the time to paste accented characters into one's comment :P Maybe for the next Wavelength you can just drop back down to 1.0 and call it a "retro edition."

Thank rkzad for the accent, I had "pase" and he went to the trouble of doing it to correct me!

I probably already said this before, but why are we at version 3.0? I remember waiting for TWL 2.0 one after noon (I skipped school for the occasion), then about 3 days later Bulk is like "keke lol TWL 3.0!!#@ 8)".

Posted By: Bulk on Aug 08 2004 at 11:19:49
Well 2.0 was the version I made, using basically a modified forum. It was a huge hack, and very unweidly. We used that from May '03 to August '03. August is when rkzad came on the scene and put my PHP skills to complete shame :)

And still nobody has found my little easter egg... although I guess it is a little hard to find...
