For those of you who are "new posts" fans but don't look at the announcements, here's a repost of the current announcment.

We're anticipating that this change will eliminate the death-by-IP crap that is the subject of this thread.

----------
Site slow today. Work around available.

No, it's not you.

http://council.smallwarsjournal.com will be running a little slow today, Thurs, 6 March, maybe into Friday. Even slower than usual. Until the internet catches up to us.

As a temporary work around, you can access the site at http://208.101.38.56/council/. That will be faster than the wordy URL for about a day, then they'll be the same. Downside -- if you use that temporarily faster IP address, it won't save your SWC login after you close your browser, so you'll just have to log in again.

FYI, we are mid-transition to our new host, and SWC is doing a Jean-Claude VanDamme move right now with its gizzards on one server and its grey matter on another. Semper Gumby.

It will shake itself out soon.
