The umlaute issue is still unresolved, but another issue appeared today where some posts and info are missing. This should not have happened, there was an issue with the main SAN earlier and it successfully did a failover to the backup SAN (put simply, hard disks). There should not have been any data loss whatsoever, we have a support ticket open with them to see what went wrong.

There is good news and bad news. The good news is that the issue is probably fixable. The bad news is that it will likely take a very long time, incur some forum down time, and as well any of the data with the gibberish characters will be removed.

Am working on the umlaute issue, will take a few days
it should have no effect on the board continuing to function

One item to remember: please if you can, avoid using characters with accent marks in post titles.

When I was a child, my sister used to flip the Monopoly board over and walk away when it became clear she was losing. I got used to it, and actually it helped me not care so much anymore if I won or lost, or how my opponents react. It is a social activity, the main purpose being to connect with friends and family; there is no shame in losing nor fame in winning.

Though I love to win!  ;D

I am not sure why this is, but indeed I can confirm that on my computer it changes them also. Have you recently changed any of your Carc Central language settings in your profile?

It was really great meeting Scott, indeed it was a long overdue meeting :D
Tobias: Scott couldn't have a beer but fortunately I could :P
He is definitely an interesting person, and I was surprised that he didn't play much either. My current gf plays Settlers and at some point in the near future I'll be introducing her to Carc. And a big thank you to Scott, kettlefish, Maik63de, Udo and HiG for the surprise package, I tried to give it back to the community but Scott insisted I take it, I am glad I did, thank you!

The switchover to the new servers is in progress today. Although it should go smoothly, be aware that this could cause some very brief disruptions over the next day or two. We have eyes on the switchover so no need to contact anyone, thanks everyone!

Yes I read some about some of the latest issues with a certain person

We've learned our lesson, not just one set of backups but many :P
I had just forgotten to restore the images folder, but all should be good now. As Scott mentioned, not only has our server been upgraded (fast SSDs) but I'm creating a separate test site so Scott can test out new modifications to the forum before making them go live (yes we should have been doing this all along).

:)
