On Aug 19th, RationalWiki (and related sites such as [[RationalWikiWiki]] and the RationalWiki forums) became inaccessible.[http://rationalwiki.blogspot.com/2009/08/pretty-much-worse-case-scenario.html] The stated reason is that a problem has occurred with the server, most likely due to a MySQL connection error. RationalWiki is hosted on its own private server at Tmtoulouse's domicile, who is on a trip out of town and is unable to attend to the problem. Although RationalWiki has nightly backups stored on a separate server, it is hoped they will not be needed.
