That's unfortunate. How about we try to keep backups when we get this
up and running again. Sorry for not being around this weekend to
update things, but there is life outside of the Internet sometimes :).

Anyway, I also recognize the state of emergency, and I'm willing to be
the Emergency Coordinator. However, I don't have a copy of the
Emergency Procedure (or even a player list) at the moment.

And this would be another reason to allow someone to have a Writ of
Delay... So that we could have someone who's active pause the game
while constructing a state of emergency. The game is in theory
continuing for now, although I don't think that'll be a problem since
we can just fix whatever problems that might cause in the Emergency
Refresh.

When I get home this evening (I'm currently at work), I can see if I
have a copy of the rules in my cache or something. I could also
volunteer space off of cooperjr.name, which is my home broadband
connection & computer, but that's probably not the best place for it,
at least not permanently. If we can use nomic.net space, that's fine
with me.

Sign me up! :)

I've discovered that I often visit the state of confusion, and I know
my way around pretty well.
