There is a network issue affecting Road Runner (ISP) subscribers. Currently, they are unable to access any website that makes use of Cogent bandwidth - which includes Newgrounds. Please inform any of your friends who can't visit NG. Hopefully the problem will be resolved shortly.

We are getting situated at the new office! We won't have an internet connection until the end of next week at the earliest, so I still have to work from home until then. It's so freaky being at the office, knowing it is the future home of Newgrounds. It's all so REAL now. It's been years since I first decided NG needed an office and this place was worth the wait! I'll finally post pictures soon!

I wish I had kept a journal of this entire process, I might try to put something together and post-date everything. It's been a heck of a process to get an office building. It's tough because I have a lot of borderline "personal" stuff I feel like posting, but a lot of it seems too trivial for the front page (I should be focused on the Flash, after all), meanwhile, posting on the BBS seems out of place as well. Gotta get that personal blog!!!

Unrelated news... Alien Hominid for the GBA is close to completion and it rocks!

Don't worry, most everybody sees fit to post aspects from their personal lives on the BBS, and you'd fit right in.

And don't turn to myspace. Myspace is evil. EVIL. Plus, you should at least wait until Wade is done being the Cool New person thereabouts.

But, glad to hear everything is working out OK for the office. You should just go all-out ridiculous and get wired in to the backbone or something, that'd be kickass internet-wise. (Stupid money and all of it's "Being an object"-ness. >:-( )

Posting on the BBS wouldn't seem out of place as well, many people would be attracted to your posts, as they happen quite rarely. The BBS is a place of love <3

It isn't specifically roadrunner. Or Cogent.

All this is being caused by Level 3, which is a top-level (tier 1) ISP.

I apparently haven't been paying much attention, I didn't know you had gone so far with the office. Congrats!

I'll finally post pictures soon!

Finally indeed, I can't wait.

Unrelated news... Alien Hominid for the GBA is close to completion and it rocks!

Another thing I didn't know about. Now that sounds really nice. I might get it, if it comes to europe that is?

You should just make a topic in the general "Toms office blog"

This RR issue may be the reason Nomader cant deposit.

So that's what's causing Nomader's NewGrounds problems. Hopefully this will all get settled up soon.

Grrr...
I looked up AH GBA and all the sites say that there is no plans of it coming to America.. WTF!?!? First we don't get the Xbox version (WHich is why I dont own the game.) and now we don't get the GBA version. Lately, all this game has done is get my hopes up and then shoot them in the face! Bummer!!!
Aside from that, glad to hear you're office is almost complete! :D
