Glad it got fixed. Did the value getting wiped cause any data loss, though? (Such as previous poll results/choices/questions)?

Ok that's good. Btw was this what caused Omnimaga to run incredibly slow Thursday night?

No. I checked the request log times and it looks like it was running normally to me.

Weird, a lot of people were complaining about slow times. Maybe a low scale DDoS or even DoS attack?

It's possible it was a network issue, I don't have logs of network times. What time was it? I've had issues with other people on the same network as me doing intensive backups early in the morning.

For the entire thursday evening. It lasted from 8 ish PM until the next morning when I checked Omni.

I think you should check out with your VPS provider about access from east coast users, because he definitively seems to have chosen a terrible VPS location for access by east coast users, because whenever Omni or your logs run incredibly slow, it's only on the East Coast.

East cost? I noticed it was slow and I'm on the east coast (US). That explains it?

Not sure, but Netham45's VPS has a long history of giving us slow loading times here on the East Coast. Often Netham45 and a few others will say it loads fine for them, but I notice a lot of the people who are affected by slow loading times (when they happen) are from the East Coast. I'm in Quebec, which is kinda close.

Hmm. I'm on the East Coast and for me it's on and off. Sometimes there's a wait, mostly though it's pretty fast.

Spoiler For IMPORTANT NEWS!:
Late last night, Quebec was invaded by a group calling themselves, "Omnimaga". Not much is known about these mysterious people except that they all carried calculators of some kind and they all seemed to converge on one house in particular. Experts estimate that the combined power of their fabled calculators is greater than all the worlds super computers put together. The group seems to be holding out in the home of a certain DJ_O, who the Omnimagians claim to be their founder. Such power has put the world at a standstill with everyone waiting to see what the Omnimagians will do...

Wait... This just in, the Omnimagians have sent the UN a list of demands that must be met or else the world will be "submitted to the wrath of Netham45's Lobster Army". Such demands include >9001 crates of peanuts, sacrificial blue lobsters, and a wide assortment of cherry flavored items. With such computing power stored in the hands of such people, we can only hope these demands are met.

In the wake of these events, we can only ask, Why? Why do these people make these demands, what caused them to gather, and what are their future plans...
