Got the reboot global 15-20 ago and still no skull...
39581, I broked it

I'll take the blame for that one. Added code and changed areas and should have done a forcebuild. Mud rebooted with updated areas but no updated code. I've been having one of those days.
39569, not to be that guy but...

if it went boom after an intentional reboot... Its fairly safe to assume that someone is aware and working on it.
39578, Actually...

It went boom after an automated reboot (CF auto-reboots every 49 hours), and luckily someone (Thanks Twist!) was trying to figure it out, but it still took a bit.
39580, So I gotta ask...whats so special about 49? n/t.

n/t.
39582, 49 hours is two days + 1 n/t.

Yup. Mostly it was me writing code to do every 48 hours, but screwing that up and starting the 1 hour countdown after I had hit that threshold, so it ended up being 49.
39585, It's actually good that it's not 48.

This way the actual reboot time of the day slowly shifts and everyone regardless of their timezone gets to occasionally abuse the immediate benefits of one ;)
39606, Yeah, that was my thinking as well.

I was just curious if there were something mystical about 49 hours in regards to CF lore or something. ;)
39607, Oh, you mean the brotherhood of the 49?

As legend goes....

They originated in San Francisco to vanquish adversaries in their battlefield.
Then sometime in 1994, CF was on the rise! Also, the 49'ers 5th super bowl victory!
Also, Joe Montana.

Yup, that's why when I noticed it, I just left it alone. Not the way it was originally designed, but a better solution overall.
