..dude, when is BC gonna get upgraded to IBM's BlueGene/L - 360 teraflops processor?..

today.

as a result, BC will read your minds and automatically bans anybody who is trying to do anything mischievous.

[ctjcad]

..*testing*.. ..hihihi..muahahahaha..*testing*

[kwun]

The upgrade has successfully completed

[ctjcad]

..that was painless, didn't even feel it..
..i think we gotta ask our overseas BCers if they feel anything different in BC, esp. those from M'sia..

[ctjcad]

..dude, what did you put into the server?...it's crazy fast!..i can go in and out of a sub-forum and to the next page almost as fast as i can blink..

It looks like BC can detect quicker now for anyone trying to cause mischief.

the upgrade done was upgrading the memory from 2GB to 4GB. we were constantly running out and the machine thrashing a lot. now it is much smoother, and hopefully will live through the anticipated extreme traffic when LD meets LCW on Sat.

the upgrade is gonna cost me US$25/month. that's one fine tube of AS50, every month.

Perhaps we should ask LD and/or LCW to donate to BC US$25/month.

Try asking LD first, when you meet him next week.

So, drifit was correct: Both LCW and LD were knocked out at the Quarter-Finals at the 2010 BWF World Championships.

..noticed a few other changes :
- The forum's posting area has gone back to look like the previous version.
- The reply texts' sizes seems a bit bigger than before; or maybe the fonts style was changed.
