A hardware failure occurred on the server this morning. The only option to get the site back up and running was to do a restore of the data to 7pm CT last night. This means that any additions or updates done to the site between the hours of 7pm CT and about 6:30am CT this morning are currently missing.
The work continues to determine if this data is recoverable and if it can be incorporated back into the site without overwriting or duplicating any changes done this morning. As well as strategizing how to prevent this scenario from occurring in the future.
Apologies for the inconvenience.

It happens. As always, your efforts are very much appreciated.

What I find remarkable:
- How much information Admin is willing to share with the members
- How many members noticed 12 hours of website that went missing.
Greatness - on both sides!

I have added a large portion of my inventory to the site, and currently have trading turned off (details are in my profile). I have (finally) unearthed my 2 very large boxes of Star Company minor league sets and they are available (email for details).

Great job everyone....although I'm glad I decided to catch up on some other things last night instead of editing a set I'm working on. : )

Thanks for the info. I added about 50 cards last night and they didn't make it into the system. At least I know the exact cards because I haven't filed them yet. An easy fix.

Thanks for the info Admin!
I know exactly what I would need to redo, just waiting for word on if I should resubmit or not.

Yes, please proceed. If the recovery is possible (still up in the air), it’ll be done in such a way as to not create duplication.
