All the toxic people had been removed from the party.

The only thing I saw was a PHP error that it couldn't connect to some memcache server.

I run PHP at work and when this happens, PHP doesn't know what to do, because I believe the processes have to restart to re-establish persistent connections. Obviously whatever happened with GAF was more complicated as it looked like it was a decently long outage.
 
It's pronounced "jaff".

Never forget:

Huh? What did I say? Did I screw up again? :(
The problem was a web server going drunk and the load balancer not removing it from the party so it start disturbing all the people in the party.

I know this web server who was so piss drunk that the load balancer escorted him out of the club and called him a cab but the web sever passed his pants while waiting for the cab and blacked out. The web server woke up face down on his rack with only his underwear mounted and the rest of his components pulled on his entry way. He checked his wallet and all his cash was gone -- about $40 -- the cabby helped himself but the server wasn't angry, I was just happy I got home :(
 
I'm so bored at home right now I sat there and refreshed the pages for like two hours before giving up. It's time to get out of the house.
I did finally manage to score a code from the UV thread after 6 months of trying even with all the trouble loading the site! Boom!

Cause no one wanted to watch Desolation of Smaug again :(
