They are apparently (we asked) afraid of "contamination". Nope, me neither. We'll have to rebuild from scratch.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I suspected it might be something like that. I can see them being terribly gunshy at this point, but it should just be data that's being moved. The whole thing is very weird.

Okay, wc1 is down again, but I managed to download everything except the main spoilers thread and the Canadians thread before it started pining for the fjords. Otherwise, I think we have everything.
eta: And I was able to get the last two later on, so we have copies of everything.
Most are not perfect downloads, however. There's still a flaw in either the script or WX that makes it skip occasional posts at random. If anyone wants to take a look at that problem, please feel free. Of course, you won't be able to test it until wc1 comes back up again.

Okay, as of an hour ago, the transfer was at 95%. I am about to leave for the weekend and will not have computer access.
ita, if there are any emergencies, just call me. I'm emailing you my number.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Received, Kristen.
Hopefully it will go unused.

I think we've lost some posts. It's probably just because of the move, but I know there are at least two, and possibly more missing from bureacracy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Whoops. Logged off, logged back on, had the same unread posts as earlier.
We seem to be a little glitchy yet.

Burrell just posted in here, after I did, saying we lost more posts. But now her post is gone.

I think it's due to the move.

Oh, I'm sure it is, and I love the move! I was just reporting.
And Cindy, I think Burrell's post is in Bureaublahblah.
