Whew. That was a lot less comfortable than we were expecting and took a lot longer, but we made it. Welcome to the new server!

Demonland has left a trail of servers in it's wake over the years. How many is that now?

Thanks Nasher. Really appreciate all the work you and the other administrators put in.

Thanks. We really shouldn’t overlook the efforts Andy ( @Demonland) puts in either - we’ve both been stuffing about with this since early this morning to get it going. It takes a team to do this stuff!

This is number 6 that I can think of. This migration was nowhere near as painful for me as the previous one, which took several days. Hopefully the last for some time!

As I logged in it said site nor secure... is that a worry?

Only if we post something inflammatory....

@Nasher @Demonland

It means it might be sending your password from you to the server in plain text instead of being encrypted - it increases your risk of having your Demonland account hacked from minuscule to minusculy less minuscule. Up to you whether you want to live with that (I am) - I’m 99% sure it’s always been that way anyway.

 So I should ignore those PMs from @Gorgoroth claiming to be Nigerian prince?

Was hoping this would go, I use my iPad on the site and whenever I open a new page a little Collingwood symbol appears at the top, next to the Demonland in the tabs at the top, has been this way for a while and presume you know about it, but pointing it out just in case

Actually, seems to have stopped

? 

It should be a Demon jumper logo but I'll check it out. Could you send a screenshot if possible?

I know it's only 24 hours but for me the site seems to be loading a lot faster.

Well done guys.

I see we are nearly half way to our donation target.... Come on let's keep this great site going

Site is definitely loading faster. 

Telstra Bigpond still hasn't caught up with the new server yet. My phone's 4G can access the site but not my home or work Telstra Bigpond accounts. 

Propagation can usually take 24 to 48 hours and Telstra is always the slowest of the ISPs. Also the most expensive. Go figure.

....just bumping this up again....

Andy has only received contributions of $1200 toward a target of $3k that has been spent to ensure that the site stays available for all of us. 

Every little bit helps, because otherwise it is out of his pocket and Nashers in terms of both $'s and time. 

Take out a subscription, or just find some loose change in the pocket. 

What would we do without Demonland?

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
