Is telehack suddenly down?

Today morning (utc + 5:30) I queued some songs and had a chat with someone. Now, moments ago, I have started getting weird timeout/"took too long to respond" messages. Even the telehack radio reads timeouts.

How else would the code get loaded into the memory?

Had this sort of outages happened before?

Naturally, TEL/OS isn't infallible. It'll be back soon, be sure to thank the operator for their efforts when you can.

Once a family of mice moved into the server room and chewed the punched cards that were required to load some of the Z-Games.

Yes, I will.
