| | |  SnitchSeeker Server Update
Work is still continuing on tuning the performance of the SnitchSeeker server. A critical piece of software was recently upgraded and it looks promising.
One thing you might notice is a new screen that displays whenever the server is under heavy stress.
"Server too busy"
This screen is needed to control the resources on the server to prevent locking everyone out. Should you receive this screen, just wait a minute or two before refreshing your screen.
Hopefully the server timeouts and database errors are finally behind us although I do believe we shall see some every now and then.
Thank you for your patience during these changes.

Aww thanks for that one Kevin.
Will bear all of that in mind! This is so exciting! Quote:

Fingers crossed all the same!

Aaah... I see. Well, I guess we'll manage to wait that time  Besides, it's great to rarely have the database errors... they're really annoying 
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

Cool. Sounds good. Patience is a virtue so the, "Server Too Busy" thingy will help me with that.  | |

Now you did it.
You attracted Peeves and he blocked your way. Don't make any sudden movements, remain quiet and refresh your screen after counting down from 10 hippogriffs. 10 hippogriffs, 9 hippogriffs, 8 ...
I'm guessing this is the new message.
You're doing a very wonderful job, Mr. Kevin. *salutes*
