Silvio Manuel Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 do you mean the Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland, the US Army Ordnance Museum? I'll be in the area this weekend, not sure if I'll be there Saturday or Sunday (and maybe a 10-20% chance I won't go to the Proving grounds). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 He might mean the opponent finder site. I can't get the link to function, so perhaps this is what he means. Or maybe it's just some temp problem with the link. Regards D 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcm1947 Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Yes let's hope everything works out. I had big plans for this site. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted April 22, 2003 Share Posted April 22, 2003 Thanks all for the concern. The site will be back, I was hoping for today but it may be a little later in the week. Semi-intricate story, but basically my webhost (client and friend) is moving the site to a server that isn't his primary E-commerce server. Seems that the traffic to the Proving Grounds was bogging down the current server a bit. He's fine with the traffic, but he just wants to get it onto a server that isn't a critical business server for his other clients. Since the hosting is free, I can't really complain about the time-frame that it's taking to get it moved over. He says he will try and get to it this week though. Fingers crossed, I have big plans for it as well! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fine with the traffic, but he just wants to get it onto a server that isn't a critical business server Nice to know that the site is getting the traffic hits :cool: .... More importantly ....we wouldnt want his e-commerce stuff bogging down the Proving Grounds Cant blame him for moving it ... looking forward to it's return ! Here is a recent AAR from an opponent found on the Proving Grounds...... War Diaries Yeah I know it's a BB AAR and this is the BO forum 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Well, I've registered a new domain for the site, it is www.the-proving-grounds.com (it isn't deployed yet, so no need in clicking on that link). I may have to rewrite the site in either PHP or Cold Fusion, whichever I feel the current code will best adapt to as it looks like the server that he's wanting to move me to doesn't support WebDNA (what it's currently written in). Shouldn't be too difficult, but it may delay the relaunch for another week or two. That and it looks like I'll have to start paying a nominal hosting fee. No biggie, it's something that I want to do for the community and I will probably have a PayPal link on the site for those that may feel that it's worth putting a couple of bucks into to keep it going. Good news is that since I'll be paying for it, scenario uploads (the original concept of the site) for "unproven" scenarios will become a reality as well as support for extensive AAR's. I'm excited! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us know where and when. We'll do. I'll have an "unofficial - official" relaunch party announcement when the time has come. Should be fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 All of my fat drunk and stupid friends are happy, while the skinny, sober and smart ones are perpetually depressed and have complicated lives. I am now working very hard to join the former, after a life in complete misery with the latter. It is never too late. You too can be saved.
