So ... Pickup Holiday Game? ...

[Jegue]

I'll be available on dec 22, but probably not before 21st. 29th is a good option though

Mention things like this in the discord, it will reach way more people in a much shorter time. Also I'm down for some tribes any time so I love this idea. I'm available any sunday in December

Ozzie will you post in discord about this pick-up game. I deleted mine, Thanks

[Ozzie]

Sure - how about we do it on the 29th (last Sunday in December) @ 6 or 7pm CST?

[LunaticChick]

Works for me but let's see what others are thinking?

[Ozzie]

Nobody ever responds to anything so I feel like it would be best to just pick a date and go with it. If someone can't make it who wants to, they should have said something about it in the first place.

Looks like Discord is down. At least for me.

Update - Google's Engineering team continues to work on mitigating the issue, and have posted the following update:

> Mitigation work is currently underway by our engineering team.
> We do not have an ETA for mitigation at this point.

We have all hands on deck awaiting the resolution of this issue to begin restoring service.

Update - We continue to observe elevated IO latency. Google has finally gotten to updating their status page. We continue to await resolution.

Update - Google is currently investigating an issue with SSD Persistent Disk in our region (what our database clusters store their data on). We are awaiting their resolution.

Given the IO starvation, we are expecting continued API latency - as most if not all of our datastores are currently degraded. We will post updates as we get them.
Dec 7, 10:54 PST
Identified - Multiple engineers are online, investigating the issue. We are noticing anomalously high iowait across most of our database clusters all other instances leading us to believe that this is a google cloud issue. We are working on a mitigation, however latency is expected to be high as we are currently starved for IO resources.
Dec 7, 10:37 PST
Investigating - We're experiencing an elevated level of API errors and are currently looking into the issue.

Yeah it was down earlier for everyone it looks like, but back up now...

I'm just going to go ahead and say December 29th and let people change it from there if needs be.

Server needs a reboot. Stuck at waiting for mission to start.

We should at least do a little Christmas/New Years/Holiday photo. Maybe enable builder mode and make a tree and photo op.
