It looks like they had to use backup databases to recover what they could. Last night, I remember getting SQL Database errors, which were likely because of corruption. When recovering, I'm guessing they used the most recent backup they could, which was a day or so old.
Yeah, what Chris said. Damn him for posting before me but I'm assuming the same thing.
Anyways, I guess this means that the TRL recaps are probably need to be updated with Monday's recap and the winners/reservation threads probably need to have the recent reservations/winners reposted. Please post whatever you guys can remember posting before.

That's what you get for linking me to the post. haha
I haven't been in contact with any of the administrators to be 100% sure but I'm guessing what Chris/Smartah is guessing, that it's a result of SQL errors and this was our best backup. The server was down earlier and I'm guessing that's where the screw-up happened but yeah, we'll find out later what really happened.
It seems that sometime during August 15th 2006 something caused an fatal error to the server, when I wake up everday I check the website, and found it was offline. I started the restore process and only had a backup from yesterday.
That's really sad because I did a lot of stuff on this site this morning and now it's all gone and some stuff from yesterday. But, at least it's running now and we can find out what happened.
