We are experiencing a major job delay due to a database outage that happened this weekend. I am looking into the extent of the issue, but it may be a several days to get things back to normal. It does not appear all data was lost for gameplay, and we hope to back populate as jobs catch up and we come up with a decent recovery plan. Although there is a chance blogs, challenges and related tasks will not be filled in for the missed days.
Will post more when I have it.
UPDATE 13:51 EST - 2010-09-17: Got the database recovered and running good again, had to do some work on the job server as well. Plan is to do the bulk of recovery work late Friday and Saturday night, into Sunday. This weekend we should have new blogs going out by the end, and things pretty back to normal if all goes well. Still looking into recovering blogs and data for the missing days.
UPDATE 00:15 EST - 2010-09-20: ARGH edition. Things didn't go as planned this weekend. Ran into some issues not related to the database. So things do seem a bit cursed trying to get things back to normal, the systems aren't exactly cooperating. The good news is, the pulls seem to be getting data each night, just everything else refuses to play nice. I am tied up all day tomorrow launching another product, but will have an update for you all Tuesday. Recovery is in sight, just not sure how far out yet, and how perfect it is.
UPDATE 08:12 EST - 2010-09-23: Blogs have been published for a day or two now, and they should be back to the normal schedule. Still working on cleaning up everything else, and looking into back populating blog possibly, however the time required might make it difficult

Does this outage have anything to do with Halo: Reach?

Good luck with getting everything back up and running again. Hopefully all of the recovery goes smoothly, I'm curious to see how many people have been playing Reach.

get trapper on it...

So, Tuesday has come and gone again. Over here it's already Thursday! Not that I am sitting on the edge of my seat, but if you make a promise, you should try and keep it. Even if it is just a one-liner with "still working on it".
Hope you get it fixed and thank you for putting in the work. For what it is worth, I do appreciate this site.

yeah big d.

Any word on the missed days? I'd really like to have them since as I am reading this correctly, they weren't lost, they just weren't posted. But I can understand if that's impossible to do.
Posted by:Dorian Grave |September 30, 2010 at 03:58 AM
Is this ever going to be fixed?
I'm stuck in a crappy auto challenge that won't finish and so i can't joing a challenge that i actually want to.
I even deleted my account and rejoined and i'm still stuck in the auto challenge and update would be nice even if it just removing auto challenges that should have expired.
Do you not care about the site, a broken site and no update for weeks isn't very good.
Posted by:Shite Auto Challenge |October 05, 2010 at 04:48 PM
I hear you - I don't particularly mind if the blogs aren't backfilled for that downtime. I'd just like my current autochallenge (due to end in -24 days time) to stop.

FUCK YOU 360voice
When True achievements was down it was updated on a regular basis and work was carried it out to fix it.
You haven't given any update since September.
Go Fuck Yourselves

PLEASE RESET THE CHALLENGES....
You have had long enough to fix the situation
