Must admit the site going down when it did might have stopped a few myself included from venting, have had time to think about the loss and have moved on to next week

Well, I had a crap day.  The footy sucked. Blundstone Arena sucks.  How good is it that there are seats where it's physically impossible for 7 year olds to see? And which quarter would you like to miss while you get food? Such a shit game day experience.

Then Demonland crashed after the game.  Brilliant!

I don't know. Sometimes you need a good vent and Demonland provides that for many. Bottling it up can be worse.

Kept hitting refresh thinking it would be fixed any second. Think I have repetitive strain injury in my right hand. Now I know how BBO feels.

After my nearly 4 hour drive. I had to wait 50 minutes for the bloody printer to work at the main gate to print my ticket! Not sure I'll be back at this venue again in a hurry!

How come you had to print the tickets? I just flashed my tickets on my phone and they used a paper one to operate the gate.

Who does Demonland use for hosting? Was it a temporary ban for excessive CPU usage? Or the hosting just couldn't handle the traffic?

I just thought it when down under the weight of dissappointed demonlanders trying to post

Obviously not angry yes care no!

Yes i was picturing 40,000 other demonites like me venting their frustration. Probably a blessing in disguise in the end.

 That was the start of it but at some point the database was corrupted. Nasher to the rescue.

We've done that many times. Some weeks we're fine. Others times it shits itself. It comes down to a matter of cost as well.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
