    The server system appears to have lost power over the last 8 hours and the Minecraft server(s) are currently down. I'll boot up the Minecraft servers once I feel as though the situation is stable.

    Due to the unexpected nature of the system shutting down, and because the Minecraft servers sit on RAM disks (which are flushed to hard disks periodically), there may have been some data loss.

    sk said as soon as it was stable, lol. Which means, if it were started RIGHT NOW, it'd probably keep going down fairly frequently. It's best for us to just wait patiently so we can have less problems when it comes back up, you know?
