Guys,

I need to take down the website for a few days in order to send it for repair. The mainboard needs to be replaced on it and IBM will not do an onsite repair. The bad news is this means I will need to shut things down for a bit. The good news is when the site comes back it will be more stable and MUCH less prone to outages. I wanted to give you guys the heads-up to finish up any live drafts. I will be shutting down the box Monday 2/5 in the morning and shipping it out for repair that morning. It may take 5-7 business days to bring things back up. I apologize for any inconvenience and wanted to give you guys enough time to finish up those drafts. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks for the headsup & all your efforts!

Thanks MajorDeegan for the update! However, I didn't even know there was a SOMDRAFT website. COOL!

Thanks for your help in getting that site back up and running, MD. Really appreciate it!

Thanks MD 8)

Site is down. Unit is boxed up and DHL is on the way. I will keep you guys updated when it will be coming back up.

God bless IBM support. The box is back, repaired and the site is back up. That is fantastic turnaround. Feel free to drop back in at: http://www.somdraft.com

Wow. I thought Penn's site was gone. This is Penn's site with all the old draft information and everything. Has everybody known about this except me and the 11 guys I did a 3-week discussion board live draft with?

Great news MD! That was uber fast!

Mal, the site came back to life when we were almost finished. The runner up leage was able to use it though :D

Thanks again MD 8)
