It seemed imposible but I'm seeing more times 'Sonic white screen of death' than the annoying blue screen of death

Only one thing I can do

Only one thing I can do

Like Nero, I will

while ZTNet burns.

I'm guessing it's like above where this is actually not ZTNET's fault cuz the behavior is exactly as it was last time when Barry said it wasn't ZTNET's fault.

Perhaps there is a real problem in one or more of the scripts at MARP that over time results in this problem.

If so, then the problem isn't going away until the bug(s) are fixed.

As far as I am aware, it's not the same. I presume Zwaxy has remember to switch off script debugging logs. He certainly hasn't mentioned it this time.

I agree with Barry.

As I can remeber the other time I could see the leaders table.

Now I can´t

infacc, depends what you mena by "other time" cuz there have been numerous things going on around MARP and ZTNET just the past few weeks.

If you mean 7-8 days ago, it was the same as it is now...when Barry then posted it actually wasn't ZTNET's fault.

When it's been ZTNET's fault it's normally where scripts sometimes run....but sometimes don't and return an error.

They aren't running at all now...which is exactly what it was 8 days ago.
Perhaps different causes...but same symptoms.

Yes, probably you are right. There have been so many problems lately that I can´t remember clearly what problems where each time.

But I don´t want to blame anybody. We should be patient as debugging programs (if really isn´t ZNET's fault) can be very despairing.

you know what the worst part of the white screen of death is? having to look at that banner of Sonic.

Look at that smug little bastard. Pointing his finger at you. As if to say "Ha ha ha, you thought the site was working? You fool!"

I hate that little blue piece of shit.

...

out of boredom I ended up trying that stupid "Search" thing on the banner. I decided to search for "Working ZTNet server". Much to my surprise, I ended up getting a "The page is not found" message.... such delicious irony!

(well, apparently it gives the same error message no matter what you type into that box. But I thought it was funny at the time.)

I think the "white screen of death" needs a Jeopardy .mp3 running in the background....

Let's try something different....

How many "sprint" recordings will be uploaded in the first 24 hours following the resumption of script functioning (assuming it returns).

I'll say 15.

Click on "Leaders" or "Search" or "Submit". Anything requiring a script.
