Server Move sucessfully completed

Today we moved the MU to an updated Amazon EC2 server. Players shouldn't notice anything different but it's important in a couple ways: One, the new, storage backed instance (which didn't exist at the time the original instance was set up) will prevent data loss/misplacement like the recent crash from happening again. Two, the move also means I inherit a share of the responsibility for the MUCK staying up. So if the MUCK is down you can contact me as well as Otter, at the same email as for website issues, and I can kick things into behaving again. (Please note that anything else to do with the running of the MUCK remains Otter's responsibility and I will differ all other requests to him. Nor can I help with "how to use the MUCK" issues - I haven't been an active player in years and I'm too rusty!)

Also, a copy of the MUCK from the December 15 crash was found and is online through February 6 (Monday) for players to retrieve info from. Just redirect your normal MUCK connection to port 4204. Guest creation is disabled and anything changed/created will be discarded after shutdown.
