Is it freedom? Are they seas?

It seems like I only post here with soundtrack updates and announcements that I’m going on vacation. So, I’m here to announce both. One is the cause of the other; no, I am not taking a vacation because I updated the soundtrack :P…

I’ve waited about five years for this trip. Our family is going on a cruise - the Freedom of the Seas, to be precise. It’s like a floating mall, but with on-board surfing and ice cream dispensers all over the place. The occasion for such a vacation? Well, it’s something very special, as well as the reason why we’ve waited five years for this trip. You see, it’s my brother’s (Max Rappaport’s) bar mitzvah, and since my own bar mitzvah five years ago, I’ve waited for the next bar mitzvah vacation. So happy bar mitzvah, little bro!

Two vacations have gone great in a row - third time’s the charm! So, with the great spirits watching over us, we will have an awesome vacation yet again. I’m all jittery and excited; I’m already packed.

But I thought I wasn’t the only one who deserved a treat. So I made sure to finish a large chunk of the Golden Sun OST before I left, since once I was gone it wouldn’t see any service for another week. Enjoy all 53 tracks that have now been recorded - it’s over half done now! Huzzah!

I’ll see all you schmoes in a week, then! Ta-ta!

Not doing anything…

…until Zelda Wiki.org is back up. You see, my spirit is crushed. If I don’t get this site working, I might fall into an extreme depression. I don’t really want to go there, and I’m going insane right now waiting for just the slightest bit of help with MediaWiki. The problem now is that I’m trying to restore a wiki that’s missing five tables in the database, and I don’t know how crucial those tables are because nobody gives any information about them!

Therefore, until I get some assistance and have the wiki completely restored (or completely dead), I will not be doing anything in regards to projects (Golden Sun and Maple Story OST’s, etc). Consider them postponed.

I’m sorry.

Zelda Wiki Down

During the server move some things happened, and some databases got deleted, so ZW.org is now one big error page. I’m working with tech support server people to restore the databases right now. I hope the downtime won’t be long, but I’ve got plenty of backups, so the worst that could happen is that we lose a couple of days’ worth of edits. It’s not that bad - not good, but not as terrible as it could be (whole site going “kablooie”).

For those of you who frequent ZW.org, I’m sorry for the downtime, and am working to resolve it as soon as possible.

Wee, finally something!

Those of you who have been waiting, the Maple Story OST finally has a big update! Over ten new tracks! Whoopee!

Some of the names of the unknown tracks have changed, a BIG amount of them are brand-spankin’-new, and a good load of them were finally sorted into their respective CD’s.

Enjoy!

Server Move

I’m upgrading my hosting plan with my hosting company, which means the site moved servers recently (see: Today). There are still a few kinks to work out, so if there is any downtime, you know why! I have to cancel my old plan and make sure everything is properly done. The move should be 100% complete over the next few days.

Beep

To show a pulse, I’m alive - just come to wish all a happy Passover. I’ve already been to a cedar at my best friend’s house, and it was a great time. Got to skip doing homework and everything. However, that also means I have… well, quite a bit of make-up work to do! Missing one night of work misses a lot of work…

So, to clarify, I’m not dead; just not bothering with other stuff right now. Hah, like that’s news. ;)
