+Team Christiansen Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 It looks like the site is down for maintenance already. I thought that wasn't going to be until a few hours later tonight. Quote Link to comment
+Vooruit! Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 .. and of course, I was *just* editing a new cache listing... Quote Link to comment
+van der Decken Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 (edited) IIRC, it was listed as 8pm to 12am GMT. So it would have started about 40 minutes ago. Edited September 11, 2018 by van der Decken Quote Link to comment

+CAVinoGal Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I saw the GMT, and figured it would happen noon (or 1) to 4 (or 5) today for me. That's typically when my husband and I head out for our COTD after doing whatever household chores and errands we need to get done, and before our evening committments. Prime geocaching time for us ... so I ran a PQ of local caches that we haven't yet found and downloaded the list for offline use. (We use our Android phones and the official app for caching) I'm so glad I did! We headed out about 1:00 this afternoon, and his app was not working - it wouldn't load any caches; the map was blank. I pulled out my phone and loaded the offline list and we navigated and found our COTD. Can't log it yet, but my draft has al the info we need when the site is back up and running. I'm curious what changes we will see! Quote Link to comment
+Vooruit! Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 In case of emergency, there's always Project GC. At least you can grab coordinates of traditionals. Quote Link to comment

I ran my PQs first, and did what I could up until T-0; it just caught as I was making a minor edit. Ah well. Tab stays open until it's all back. Quote Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I guess my CAPS issue has been fixed! I too was expecting it to begin at 8 p.m. Seattle time. 1 Quote Link to comment

I too was expecting it to begin at 8 p.m. Seattle time. Yep. I always log out when done. Well the forums, the area that I've been told plenty of times was separate from the site, wouldn't let me log back in. First I got a time out for ten (and another ten) minutes for logging in the "wrong password" twice (the red banner said three times...), then it kept saying my caps lock needs to be turned off. ETA...But I did go by the Announcement forum, using the converter for the correct time. Edited September 12, 2018 by cerberus1 addification Quote Link to comment
+thebruce0 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Has there still been no release notes post to inform about what's changed? Or wer the changes insignificant to front-end users? Quote Link to comment

I thought that was one off the changes when the new forum software dropped a couple years ago: it went from the Groundspeak server to the geocaching server. Quote Link to comment

After what I am fairly certain was only ONE, IF ANY incorrect passwords entered. IF ANY! But my warning said there had been three, and gave me the message saying I was temporarily locked out for 3 incorrect entries and would have to wait 6 minutes to try again. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, I should note that at no time was my password "incorrect". Arthritic old hands are hunt n peck, and the only errors might be in splelling. Quote Link to comment
