Did the Forum just reset to Sept 15 or is it just me?

Likewise here. I was also logged out.

Yes, this appears to be a problem.

The homepage (and thus probably the database with the Magic Windows) also has reverted back to September.

I have informed the sysadmin.

PLEASE DO NOT

POST ANYTHING
UPLOAD ANYTHING

When this will be fixed again, everything you have done during this odd timeout will be deleted automatically and cannot be saved or retrieved!

Catalog is also missing books finished after Sept 15.

I have just uploaded a chapter for Barchester Towers. Will I need to upload it again?

How will I know when it is safe to do so?

Audiobooks from Sept 15 onward are still available on Archive. Will MC's have to re-enter them into the catalog manually?

This has happened once already this year (I think twice) which isn't much, but still far too often. But at least those were small setbacks, unlike this.

Not if the sysadmin can successfully restore everything up to this morning. If not, we have a LOT of work ahead of us.

Being positive it's only 1 month out of 11 years - and it hasn't even happened yet. Let's worry about what happens if all of California falls into the San Andreas Fault - or if giant asteroid crashes into the sea and a tidal wave wipes out everyone but those living on top of Mt Everest ....... or if the world ends tomorrow. ?
Or we could just wait and see what happens

Looking on the positive side...it is fun to review my DPL list and realize 9 of the projects have completed in the last month!

Kind of crazy. I just recorded Old Boats which I thought was the weekly poem. I wanted to see how other people recorded the author's name Theodosia. But the poem thread wasn't there. Well, I'll be checking to see what happens.

On the positive side, it didn't happen during "clean-up month"
