Right, there's no need for any of this. As I said above Demonology people are welcome here at any time. Last time I looked Demonland and Demonology both supported the same footy club.

demonland/demonology are both supported by same supporters too !!!!...but do get frustrated with demonology being down on all days THE GRAND FINAL DAY !!!!!! :angry: :angry:

    Not really - when the Demons are not involved in it and I would expect no more YKW rumours seeing that there's only one thing of importance today in the AFL.

    someone said demonology's been locked down 'skills32', any ideas?

    Not a clue Dee-luded.Might have something to do with the re write of the site .

    It's database error, got nothing to do with the rewrite. I'd say the only reason it hasn't been fixed it is because Tim_ is busy and hasn't noticed that it's broken yet.

    It's a simple error to fix when it happens. It's just a matter of somebody who can fix it noticing it.

    The average age of Demonland posters has risen by 35 years of age in the last 24 hours

    I wonder why...

    it says it has too many connections - how can that be?

    LOL. God I'm missing 'ology!

    No way I'm repeating that on there!

    Geelong were obviously awesome and deserved it though.

    Not repeating that ^ either.

    I still love Choco :wub:

    it's been down nearly 48 hours now - surely Tim has 'noticed' it by now, as he is ( was ? ) a regular contributor.

    maybe he has lost interest in Demonology due to the power trips happening between it's moderators.

    If Tim_'s upset by the behavior of its moderators he can just give them the flick. He wouldn't just "give up" on the site that he has put a lot of time and energy in to building.

    Maybe he is doing one of those things that some very strange people do on their weekends like spending time with his family.

    let's hope that's it Nash - he has worked so hard on it, particularly in stat's work - sometimes it must just seem so much simpler to use 'off the shelf' software tho.

    'land seems to have everything necessary for a furum site - has any part of 'land been written specially?

    There's a whole bunch of stuff that has been written specially, but none of it is live at the moment (pending a few things). It all leverages the forum platform though. It would take far too much time to develop it all from scratch IMO. I reckon Tim is mad. :)

    The server is still running but for some reason no one it seems has looked at the database problem, it's had the same error for some time now. :wacko:

    My guess would be as no one has taken down the actual server hosting http://demonology.midnight.net.au/ or resolved the database issue it's just a man/woman power issue

    I have just spoken with Tim_ about the problem.

    Unfortunately for Tim_ a tree had blown down from his neighbours and took out all his power and telephone connections ( and a bit of his house to boot!). So until my call he knew nothing, and was otherwise preoccupied with trying to keep warm in the cold weather we have been experiencing.

    I am attempting to call the ISP on his behalf, and hopefully we will get the problem sorted, prior to the Judd announcement.......

    George, have you been down the Junction with your video camera seeing who's coming and going??!!

    Does Tim think this act of god is a good or bad omen??

    Thanks once again for your hard work Tim.

    Must be very frustrating especially given the timing - forget teh GF, what I mean is trade week.

    Still, nothing we can do about it all I guess.

    Maybe the Pies have sabotaged 'ology.

    Picket Fence - welcome - I think over time you will value 'land - I think over time you will gravitate to 'land quite a bit - it seems to me to be an excellent site for a number of reasons - reliability ( I don't think I have ever seen it unobtainable ) , very easy to negotiate the various forums which are presented in an extremely logical and practical manner , very well moderated ( without any apparent power trips or air of superiority) and a very knowledgeable and informative range of posts and members who contribute in a supportive and co-operative and respectful manner without sniping or anyone wanting to gain one-upmanship.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
