crystal or action

FORM: crystal
SENDER: rowena macleod
RECIPIENT: all
NOTES: some conversations may lead to conversations about death. also action responders are free to assume a mini set-up conversation to have agreed to meet rowena somewhere for said drink!


I've spent much of the time since I was brought through a rift researching. The studies of magic, the manifestations of spirits, and the plants native to this world have been particular topics of interest. Surprisingly, it has been spirits that I've seen the most of since my arrival.

( rowena pauses, deciding for a moment how to continue )

I know some details regarding the Fade and of demons. I'd rather more like to hear your views on spirits, even the wisps that have appeared. If we die, do we become them as we are now here?

( it isn't her original question but she can't bring herself to ask the original question )

I wouldn't be opposed to this conversation over a drink instead.

( it feels appropriate )

Database maintenance

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

AWS outage

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
