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?

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
