Server Upgrade and Fundraising.
The draft made it painfully clear that we are overdue for a hardware upgrade. The current server is now 4.5 years old and just doesn't cut it on high demand days. It was suggested in this thread that we raise some money and upgrade the server ASAP.. hopefully before training camp.
I have done a ton of research and found a solution that will only increase our monthly costs by $40-$50 but our upgrade costs will be an additional $500 due to running two servers concurrently for a month and setup fees. So, if anyone is interested, feel free to click the green DONATE button. I will try to make sure everybody that does gets marked as a SUPPORTER but if I miss you, just post here and remind me. Here is where we are right now... I'm changing the thermometer graphic so we can see it go up but the actual goal was $500 and hasn't changed. I'll look for a better graphic.

lol at the double-post, confirms what we all are seeing. I'm glad it should be updated before Sunday.

The server is too busy at the moment. Most of the time, this is temporary and will be resolved automatically in a few minutes. Please try again later or visit Downtime ChiefsPlanet for updates.

I sent him a PM on Facebook earlier to see if we might be able to get an update, but haven't heard back.

Say a prayer for the server.
I don't think it can survive the huge increase in traffic we're gonna see tomorrow. |

Everything is ready but the actual db transfer slowed down to a crawl and it won't be done by game time, I am going to wait and kick it off again tomorrow night that way we won't be down for the game. Sorry but this DEFINITELY will be the last game with this old server. The new one is a total beast by the way. Should be able to hold most of the DB in memory and significantly speed things up.
I'll try to keep an eye on this one tomorrow but I don't have much hope for it holding up to well. |

Server holding up through the 1st quarter.
I figured it would've crashed before the game started. |
