Just to let everyone know, I've been unable to access ENworld for the last 3 days. Today it's working, so I'll be trying to get all my games updated tonight or in the morning.

There was a workaround involving updating your /etc/hosts file (c:windowssystem32driversetchosts on Windows), which I'm using. The problem is, how do you let people who can't get to the boards know about it?
What's the workaround? Its been so annoying...I feel like I'm going to miss something important!
Like I said, if you're using Mac or Linux the same thing should work except the file is just /etc/hosts.I'm getting pretty random results in my testing. But yeah, it's a DNS problem.
Anybody who's having a problem (on a Windows box) should be able to fix it temporarily by doing this:
Open C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in notepad
Add the following lines to the end of that file:
68.68.204.19 www.enworld.org
68.68.204.19 www.circvsmaximvs.com
This will override your DNS server, and force your computer to go to the right IP address when you visit those sites.
I think it is a good option to add in a character like Vlastos in flight, you know he will resurface (and if not you can get another character by "messanger").
Another option I posted in the tavern OOC was to take another striker. In the case of the Kobold game our striker is a Rogue, so a ranged striker is not a bad compromise.
