Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

#195350 Creator Of Sonic Epoch Here

Posted by southbird on 06 July 2014 - 09:09 PM

Welcome back even though we're meeting for the first time; I've been on here since March of last year and a lurker for a few months prior.

I have played your game and got through it; I love the story by the way. It's nice to see a talent such as yourself back on here!

 

Thanks! I assume you mean the GBA version? (The PC version is a bit of a bear to run these days.) I still would like to redo it with modern tech, but that's just in the really really preliminary stages of consideration right now.




#195342 Creator Of Sonic Epoch Here

Posted by southbird on 06 July 2014 - 08:43 PM

Hi guys.

 

I haven't posted at a FUS forum since it was under control of Sonique ... so that should give you an idea.

 

I'm the original creator of Sonic Epoch, which I imagine most of you at least know of. I've been known by many names over the years, but currently it's (Captain) Southbird, and probably best known now for Super Mario Bros. 3Mix. (If you like Mario / SMB3, search for 3Mix on YouTube.) Epoch is pretty dated at this point, but it did have some significant meaning ~10 years ago.

 

In all honesty, my primary business was to get the "Sonic Epoch" page fixed to be meaningful (I maintain a much more complete and in-context history at http://www.sonicepoch.com), and according to whatever-name-Sonique-goes-by-these-days, the "contact" form on the site didn't seem to go anywhere... but I just got an email from Paul/Chief, so... never mind I guess! (As long as he does what he said he'll do. :))

 

If you have any questions about Epoch, I'd be glad to answer... otherwise I'll probably lurk around a bit.
