Yes, feeder is dead. And with no support outside of office hours, I'd be surprised if the problem is fixed before Monday, in Toronto.

Well, if they have shut it down for good, one could have expected that they at least announced the shutdown, either on the website, or somewhere else.

The WCG site is down, with the usual "System error". I do not know when it went down though. Nowadays, I seldom visit the site, or crunch any tasks.
My BOINC is shut down, so I haven't got a clue if the BOINC part of WCG works.

And the same wishes to you Jord, and to every BOINC user here.

Yeah, the site is down. At least the BOINC part of WCG is still working.
Since the team, as well as the data center isn't working until December 27, at the earliest, I doubt we will see the return of the site anytime soon.

I'm not that surprised though, that this happened, just after the team went home for Christmas.

If WCG was a V12 engine, one could say that it's only running on a couple of cylinders. Still plenty of issues, and old issues keeps coming back, and has to be "solved" again, and again.
No problems for me though, since I also run my computers on just a few "cylinders", and only 1 computer at the time, and absolutely not 24/7.

Take your time WCG. It's just a hobby for me.

WCG website is down since a couple of hours.

The usual:

"System error
World Community Grid is currently experiencing an unexpected error. Please check Facebook or Twitter for more information."

So far nothing on FB from the WCG team.

Well, WCG website lasted 8 days or so, but now it's down again.

Forum with the following error:

SRVE0255E: A WebGroup/Virtual Host to handle /forums/wcg/listrecentthreads has not been defined.

SRVE0255E: A WebGroup/Virtual Host to handle www.worldcommunitygrid.org:443 has not been defined.

And the main page with the usual error:

System error
World Community Grid is currently experiencing an unexpected error. Please check Facebook or Twitter for more information.

Edit: and only minutes later, it's all back again.

Yes, I also got some "new" (_0 and _1) MCM1's, and also a few SCC1 resends.
The WCG website though, is still down and out.

And down again:

System error
World Community Grid is currently experiencing an unexpected error. Please check Facebook or Twitter for more information.

Edit: Checking Facebook is a waste of time of course. Their last update on FB was October 14.

Still no tasks, and still extremely slow validation of tasks that's been crunched by both wingmen (MCM1)
I have tons of those, that should have been validated days ago. The last 24 hours, only 2 has been validated.

WCG is kind of back, but far from normal yet. Lots of catching up to do.
Now we can look forward to the next long outage :-)

I'm still getting a few MCM1 resends from time to time, and even one SCC1 resend. As of now, I have 32 MCM1 resends, and one SCC1 resend in my cache.

I'm getting just enough of MCM1 resends (_2), to keep my Laptop with an i7-3630QM CPU crunching, with a steady 50+ tasks in the cache.
That will probably not continue for much longer though. MCM1 resends will also run out, sooner or later.

The site is back(ish), but it's not possible to log in. "Invalid e-mail address and password provided"

I'll try again next year :-)
