Sorry looks like weasels have eaten our web server.

When I was clicking a link to a project, this appeared instead of the project:

THAT WAS FUNNY!

It wasn't just that project, the whole scratch site went down for a couple of seconds.

503 means service unavailable. You often get these when server is overloaded and can't take any more.

They just want to be funny. It's an inside joke. They once put "OMG. Scratch could not connect to the server."

I got that too.  I thought it was hilarious.  It made having the server glitch up an amusing experience - nice work whoever thought that one up.  The world needs more random humor in unexpected places  smile

I saved a picture in Paint - I thought it silly.  tongue

It would have been funny if there were a picture of a weasel eating the server. XD

It's annoying, but slightly hilarious.

Re: Sorry looks like weasels have eaten our web server.

ROFL! I wonder who did that, it happened to me like 5 secs ago...


There is honestly no secret to this signature. Just don't highlight it.                                                                          No, seriously. Don't.                                                              I told you not to hightlight it... but it's too late now. My minions are after you. Be warned! > : D
