Yeah I'm glad the contest is still going on.

If the downtime lasts longer than expected, do you think you could get Free to re-open TI-BANK account but just disable the site, then you could redirect users to Inspired-Lua if they were participating to the contest? I personally had to bookmark Inspired-Lua because I never got able to get the URL right (I always try nspired-lua, nspire-lua, nspired_lua, nspire_lua or similar combinations, then I eventually gave up before reaching inspired-lua). Some people from TI-BANK might have troubles finding Inspired-Lua due to being used to just typing Nspire instead of Inspire.

Oh that sucks, well I guess you could always just put an HTML page online stating the entire contest info with the contest banner and say TI-BANK is currently unavailable but the contest is still active.

oh no.. I'm just coming back from holidays and I wanted to know the news in TI bank, and..
bad surprise..  :-\


I first thought that Mic closed the site in a new acces of anger.. Phew ! :)


Is the contest still ongoing ?


Yes, there is no reason to cancel the contest as it was hosted on 2 websites and http://www.inspired-lua.org is still online.

You can still send your project to [email protected] - the email is still working... for now.

Thanks for the new link to add to my database! :D Especially since I just cleaned out 60 of them today.. o.o

Only 60 were down? O.O

When I had a link section here, we had like 300 sites, but when I checked one single month later, about 20 sites were down already. I'm glad you don't have to remove too many at least but also glad you are still maintaining it since it had quite a good database.

It's nice to know that the contest is still going on.

PS: upload the rules to the inspired-lua.org

otherwise, it will be hard to follow them ...

i don't think Free will re-open the website.... i think they closed it because there were too many downloads (as there are on websites where you can find cracks), and if they re-open it, we will have some restrictions.

Yeah, I had somewhere around 180 links, maybe a few more above that. It's nice to know that it's fixed. I still need to go through the asmresc page and get those checked and cleaned out. If any are down that linked to tutorials, I'll have to see if the webarchive has those pages and get them saved to the tutorials section.

As to TI-Bank, hopefully things can be worked out to get it back up and running :<

If I can help out in anyway, I'd love to help. I have plenty of space to offer, so if any files or tutorials need to be hosted, I'd be more than glad to do it.

I see. As for TI-BANK, I think they have other plans now, but they won't give details until it's done it seems. I hope they don't have serious issues getting their traffic back, though.

So this is gonna be the same price as the previous Omni host? (The fastest/best one we got, although it was still shared hosting, unlike the current VPS Netham45 runs)
