Take my days off, please. Although I work tomorrow (hopefully), so the crazy amount of time off *is* coming to an end, yay :D
And the good thing about all this time off is I've gotten to go back to my default sleeping pattern (3AM-Noon). Trouble is forcing body to get out of the apartment, even for a walk, when I know I don't have anything to do. Silly body, move! At least today I went for an adventure to Vallco, so it felt like I was a part of humanity again instead of some feverish cave creature. XD
As for the game site... the problem, I think, lies in mediawiki. It isn't exactly the most stable system out there for information collection, but alternatives, like tikiwiki, require more direct database manipulation in mysql than I'm comfortable with. If the game was still running, I'd just switch to it to Joomla! and be done with it. That content management system is *much* easier to fix when broken, and furthermore, the way it saves content, I wouldn't have to hand edit back in punctuation and other edits because it saves data in a more efficient, html friendly fashion.
But since this is for an archive for a game that died two years ago, yeah, not going to spend the time re-installing and setting up Joomla!. And watch the subdomain crash again five minutes after I say that. XD
