I tend to check boardsofcanada.com every so often just in case it ends up being the first place they announce something. I checked just now and it seems like they removed the animated hexagon recently. Also the arrows are now eroded images of twoism, but in chrome the image in the arrows seems to be upside down while in firefox they are right-side-up. Is my memory shitty, have the arrows always been like that? And is the hexagon removal old news? The last time I checked may have been around a month ago.

To be fair to you, this older thread was last updated several years ago. :wink:

By the way, you can also sign up to followthatpage.com which will email you whenever a change is made to their website, even smaller and insignificant ones.

It still appears to be down, never been excited about a website not working before haha. I hope something is stiring and it isn't just a technical hitch.

If someone wanted to learn to dabble in programming, you could probably write a harmless shell script to email you when it's back up within a few seconds...I guess that'd be a crazy thing to do though.

Oooooooh shit. It would be the perfect time to announce something , right after they just put out their first remix in years.

music70.com and hexagonsun.com are both still up. Also assuming it is a hosted service, seems an odd amount of down time unless the hosting service is shite.

all those websites are still hosted on 1and1. cosecha is behind cloudflare. definitely just looks like their server is down. it isnt AWS' fault (i.e. there isnt a service issue) so presumably it has crashed. some sysadmin is probably having a shit morning somewhere dauwn sauwf.

Same here, Techboys explanation is far too logical, down to earth and realistic for my liking haha. Its down on purpose so they can update it with new shit damn it! *Setting myself up for massive disappointment.

All I can think of is this Mdg statement frim a while ago.

I think this might be happening

omg please be something, anything....

Under no other circumstance would I be so super hyped to see a website go down. I realize it's highly likely it isn't some sort of site overhaul or major announcement and that it just happens to be down by no design of their own, but I will say I check their site on the regular and this is the first time I can remember it being down since TH.
