Time to start passing the time with cats again I guess....
To be fair, we were only told that it would BE up and working soon. Nothing about REMAINING up and working.

There's no option to vote for YESTERDAY! In any case those of us who have voted can't vote again.

One more vote for the cats! ^ Or two more.

Just noticed the word PROPERLY was inserted. So yesterday doesn't count...

Note the subtle change in the poll title, which makes "YESTERDAY" a non-answer.

Yes, I've noticed. Thanks. ^

Now what's the definition of PROPERLY?

Does it include the ability to change one's email address? See the expiry date of current status? Website staying up more than 24 hours?

Ah good, I'm glad things are back to normal now - instead of these new fangled error messages, we've got our old friend "The bmi website is currently unavailable due to maintenance" generic something/everything is broken error.

Mine is still working. I am clearly VERY special!

And no, I'm not a cat.

I must also be VERY special and I'm not a cat either.

Naaah, you just tried it after it went down. It appears to be back up now. Someone found the 50p at Donnington Hall to put in the internet machine for another 30 minutes.

Either lots of us are special or they've "fixed" it again.

Can we have a poll on when it's next going to go down?

I have cats - so I don't get the "I prefer the cats" joke...

If you go back through this thread, you'll find lots of pictures with cats with "funny" macros with them.

Or LOLCats as they're sometimes known (by 4Chan and http://icanhascheezburger.com/ ).

They've provided us with LOL's and entertainment whilst we have been on hold.

For example:


If I had some time, I'd make another BMI funny one...
