Thanks Marian for the link. Such a big mess for so many people and on a holiday weekend, oh my. I am glad that Paul and BFG were so wise in having the backup servers for the "just in cases" like this. Hoping that all those involved can be up and running soon without much loss.

Just found Picman on twitter, I'm watching you!

It's Saturday 1.41am here (uk) and I'm patienly holding my vigil, I shall only rest when Felix is swiming happily in familiar water amongst those that love him.

I've been traveling all day and look what happens when I'm gone ! BFG-Guy, I am so sorry for all your troubles and kudos for your IT team that I am sure are scrambling right now. I hope you enjoy your vacation, I'll be on the beach all week myself.
Best of luck in your data transfers.

Hang in there, BFG! I'm so sorry to hear about this, but bear in mind that our favorite game site is always worth the waiting! Kudos to all working on it, and enjoy your time vacationing, BFG-Guy.

I'm so sorry this happened to you Big fish, I was at
a Dr's appt at Virgina Mason in Seattle when it
happened. heard all the firetrucks.
I wish you the best of luck.

Ooopss! There I just nodded off and its back. Hoorayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! BFG, BFG, BFG, YOU'RE THE GREATEST. Sorry I'm shouting

Thank goodness!!! I wasn't sure just how much longer I could withstand the horrible withdrawal symptoms I was experiencing!!

Fisher is still dark, but BFG is up and running in our backup facility. Forums and community still down, but back soon.

Thank you, BFG-Guy, for all of Big Fish's superb efforts today!

I just bought Magic Encyclopedia Moon Light!

Happy Fourth of July to you and to your family, and to all at Big Fish Games!

Thanks BFG-Guy

You guys even got Magic Encypopedia up for us which I bought straight away

Can someone post this to gamezebo forum thread as my iPhone does not work there:

We are up and running in our backup data center, fisher plaza is still without power!!
Fourms and community not yet back but should be shortly!

A big thanks to about 20 BFG engineers and IT folks that worked a straight 24 hour shift...on thier day off!!

Your message has now been posted on Gamezebo, BFG-Guy.

And all is well with Big Fish; I bought Magic Encyclopedia, I received an email receipt, and it has shown up in my purchase history! Big Fish comes through for us once again!!

I must have posted about the same time you did Marian at Gamezebo. There was no notice there about BFG being on the air again, and when I finished typing there was your message!

I also downloaded and purchased Magic Encyclopedia probably the same time you were doing it.

So anyway BFG-Guy your message has been shouted loud and clear at Gamezebo. I want to thank you for releasing this great game Magic Encyclopedia 2 moonlight today. I live in Ireland and waited all night for you to be up and running again and it is now going on 10:00 am!

The download speed was fantastic, the best I have ever had. Usually it is slow even though I have DSL and wireless download speed, today it was so fast under 5 minutes! I hope this continues for all my downloads for now on.

I am a citizen of America that moved out of country. But Happy July 4th!

BFG-Guy

Congrats BFG-Guy! Well Done!

Ana

Whoopee......I'm so happy..so happy...so happy....sing along, could do with musical notes on the keyboard

How come I don't have any of those moticon thingys when I write, uhmm..

Grats to Big Fish who run a state of the art business. Business excellence is a never-ending pursuit in a world of increasing challenges and BFG epitomizes this profile.

Welcome back online ~ :USA:

Thanks Picman and BFG, Can't do ME2 today but will shortly. Had to see if you guys are ok. Thanks for all of BFG and their hard work

Koalanut

It's a relief to see Big Fish back online -- with Felix all dressed up for the 4th too.

What a wonderful job BFG-Guy and crew !!!
And Magic Encyclpedia to boot!!! Bought it immediately!!

Hope you all have a Happy Holiday!!!!

Sherryah, Gamezebo can't have too many notes about how Big Fish is back up and running---I was so wired last night over the good news that I didn't go to sleep until 2 a.m.!

And by the way, for those of you who have the Big Fish toolbar installed, check out what you see at the top when you click now on "new releases." I want to make sure that I am not hallucinating from sleep deprivation....

Sure will be glad when the Game Community is back up and running. I have lots of dedicated Team Bingo players that are now experiencing Bingo withdrawal and don't think they are going to make it through another day without Team Bingo and tournaments!

I know what an awesome task you all faced with this and just want to say a Big Thanks for all your hard word!

Gosh, I was away and didn't see this until now. What a terrible thing for all at BFG, and wowee, well done for getting everything up and running again, so fast. I don't think it would happen in many places, and with many companies(and some countries What a dedicated team you all are!
I just went and bought ME2 straight away, came here to see what you all thought, and just caught up with it all.
Well done to BFG, you are just the best!
Oh, and Happy 4th of July to all of you that side of the pond, from a little fish this side :USA:

Thanks to all the team at Big Fish for getting up and running so quickly. You are all the best and most dedicated people. Thanks Thanks and Thanks again. :USA:
