SOH SERVERS:
Please be advised that SOH was notified at noon by the hosting company that the server(s) may be shut down for a period of (up to) six hours tonight from 00CST (05Z) to 06 CST (11z). Based on past experience this could happen sooner, or last 10 minutes to 10 hours. Eamonn has set up a temporary alternate thread for baton posts on the Race site in case. SOH may not have sufficient warning to notify everyone so please check for information on the Race site if you are unable to access SOH the normal way (sim-outhouse.com, or .net).
BTW that means SOH could lose not only the forums but the flight server and TeamSpeak.
