    There was perhaps a technical difficulty cos the boards were down for about 1 hour earlier. I was getting the usual Snowboards message.

    I've noticed this, too. It's probably just a bug.

    No, Gabe... it's happening right now.

    I'd guess it's just a technical glitch on the IGN side...

    It happens from time to time. Oldbies should recognize it.

    1. Board turnover time, or
    2. Biggee burp, or
    3. Huge fart from too much garlic, or
    4. Snowboards had a minor crash, again, trying to upgrade or fix boo-boo :D :D :D

    Yeah last night it popped up with that message from Snowboards.com and I was in the middle of posting and when I went to submit it gave me that message. quite aggravating, but I needed to get to bed anyway last night so it was a god send :)

    As others have pointed out, IGN were doing maintenance last night, and that is what has caused the change in the board tallies. It should reset itself tonight, and if it doesn't, we'll e-mail the IGN techs to fix it up since something like this has happened before.

    Could this be a cover up and the actual truth be that Gandolf broke something [face_shocked]

    [face_shocked] Maybe it was a cover-up, so that we wouldn't suspect that Gandolf the Grey broke something on the boards.

    At least we get to keep our post counts.

    If that was correct, I'd have almost all the posts on the boards, and a bunch of people would have more posts than the boards. [face_shocked]

    Well after the midnight barrier the board count has returned but the total total number of messages (10 million or some such) is gone, its only counting the messages since the boards returned yesterday.

    Does this mean we'll have to sit through the "excitement" of wondering who will get the JC's 10 millionth post again? [face_plain]
