That's a good suggestion, to use Dropbox. I'm not reading Sunrise's thread so I don't know what he uses to host his images. I'm guessing it's trivial to tell the PB server where the save folder should be and put that inside the Dropbox directory (or to add another Dropbox directory, either way implementation should be simple). And the admin access is a nice bonus for when Sunrise gets a power outage/hurricane/other natural disaster. I think we've had offers around here before about alternate pitboss hosts, if needed. Move the save, post the new IP address, and the game is back online.

Did you email sunrise? Has he responded yet? Last time I emailed him, he responded pretty quick from his phone.

Can we have a pause on reload? Daylight savings and LP and I needing to clock game or whatever we're doing.

Assuming we're reloading from Plako's autosave, there should be 7-8 hours left on the timer. Shouldn't be a problem, I imagine.
Unfortunate that this downtime keeps happening in the weekends lately...

I was away all day, but the server seems to have lost power. I have in-laws and other family over, so no idea what sort of antics they were up to...
Anyways, reloaded to plako's save. 7+ hours left on timer.

I will not be able to play Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday. Can mist or someone execute orders for me?

The game wasn't paused when I logged in and I don't know how to make it pause. So someone please do it, because ASM and Sunrise haven't played yet, I think.
