i'm one of the editors, so i will tell you exactly what happened:

we overloaded our host's server somehow, and they suspended our account. complicating matters is the fact that they think the account is still owned by flamingpear (the site's founder), rather than by derek - even though derek was very good about changing all the account information to be in his name. fortunately, flamingpear is intervening on our behalf to negotiate with the server people.

there's really nothing we can do but wait.

You're one of the TIGS?! Awesome! Smile

You're meant to be getting an email from me, any day now... or sometime. Whenever I can stop being lazy enough and putting it off. And then! Yes... then, emails shall be sent. And you, or whoever deals with PR emails will get it.

Mainly I was going to ask you guys about your opinions on Japanese indie/doujin games, your favourites, thoughts on the movement, big shakers and bakers, etc. You know, what's out there, on the waves, dude. Or dudette even! Whoever I end up talking to.

It's for a non-TGQ article I'm doing. Which I am shamefully pretending will go away if I ignore it...

Damn, I hope the site comes back, I loved that place!

::hauls out the paddles...:: .... *zzzZZZJZRTZZZ*

Sorry to resuscitate old topics, but is there any word on this issue yet?


Also, in the meantime, does anybody know one or several quality substitutes?

Withdrawal and such..

tigsource probably won't be continuing in the form it was in.

tim w., one of the other former editors, maintains an indy game blog.

But it's french!

Also, I seriously doubt they give you a massage through the computer screen.
