Geocaching.com Down?

[Trekkin and Birdin]

And of course I wanted to send myself a PQ before I head over to the storytelling shindig soon. Argh! It seems like it’s been short lived, but right now….not short enough!

[furfool]

I just tried and got in right away. That was at 9:28.

its down………………
…well at least the main page is….I got in through my profile page though and was able to navigate from there…just cant hit their main page.

👿 Awe come on! 👿
…It’s not like I need a PQ to run or anything……

[gotta run]

Yeah, I can’t get any PQs to run either. What a PITA.

Got my PQ at 5:15pm No problem then.
And to think this PITA only costs $30/yr. = Priceless

[cheezehead]

Hmmm…. just submitted 3 caches with no problems. But that’s not a PQ.

[Lostby7]

Got mine after about 2 hours…..

[gotta run]

Got it now. About a 2 hour delay as well. Must be a system burp. Needs a smack on the bottom I guess.

I have not cached for a couple weeks, so have not run a PQ for a while. No need to run PQ’s until I’m ready to go back into the field.

So far of the 14 days this month, I’ve cached exactly one day and found just 3 caches that day, no thanks to Bambi.

Gonna give it another shot at 300 on Tuesday the 20th.

Seems as if some folks were waiting much longer than me…

From a CG forum Mod:
“It figures that this would happen when we (GSP) are all in meetings!

The process for new PQs did indeed go down, but it has been restarted. There is only a small backlog, so you should see them shortly.

Sorry for the problems and thanks for your patience!”

“Patience” though…really? I lost that about 20 or so site outages ago.

(Sorry for the negativity) (Don’t mean to harsh any mellows)

Nobody feed the chipmunks this morning????

[Todd300]

Geocaching.com is temporarily down for maintenance. We apologize for any inconvenience that this might cause.

As of 2:07pm.

sighs.

Just when I was gonna run a pq for this weekend’s caching in Oconto. Well, I can still do it. Just won’t have updated logs in my PDA.

[Lostby7]

shocking I know…the GC forums are very slow too….should clear up soon though…I hope. They are getting stuff moved around and may have forgotten to feed the hamsters.

Nope, there’s a release notes post for another new website release.

This one was an intentional downtime window to release new code.

One of the “biggies” I see there is they added attributes to PQ and the GPX file which the release notes thread says will be supported by the iPhone v3 app that was uploaded to apple’s store today.
