Dear QuizBowl group:
I have been forced to CANCEL the Dec. 5 Trivia Challenge Online
game. Let me re-emphasize that - DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME TRYING TO
PLAY TONIGHT - THE GAME IS CANCELLED. My deepest apologies for any
difficulty this may have caused you. My site has recently moved to
a new server, and the game will not operate on the new server
without some reprogramming. To minimize problems for myself and you
as players, I have simply cancelled the game until I can guarantee
stability throughout the whole game.
I know that this may cause you some difficulty, and may re-emphasize
the view to some of you that I am simply a moron trying to yank your
chain with false promises. Forgive me - when you develop a free
game, you have to deal with unpredictable (and cheap) service, and
sometimes things blow up in your face at the last second. FYI, the
game on Sunday went very well and was a lot of fun - so please bear
with me. I will remove myself from the front lines until I can
offer everyone something that will be both fun AND continually
reliable.
Once again, my sincerest apologies,
Ben Stewart
