CC is working again! 10 creatures added!

[Shade]

I woke up this morning to find a message that the CC has been repaired.

To test it, I added 10 dinosaurs this morning.

- Dinosaur, Monoclonius
- Dinosaur, Nothosaurus
- Dinosaur, Paleoscincus
- Dinosaur, Plateosaurus
- Dinosaur, Shonisaurus
- Dinosaur, Struthiomimus
- Dinosaur, Styracosaurus
- Dinosaur, Tanystropheus
- Dinosaur, Temnodontosaurus
- Dinosaur, Teratosaurus

I'll give them a few days to shine, then begin uploading more of our massive backlog.

Thanks for the patience everyone, and for keeping the thing alive during the downtime.

Hooray! It's going to take a while to get through the stack I guess, but I'm glad we're back on line!

Maybe I should nominate this for topic of the week...

Well, to use 4e marketing-speak that is "dinotastic news" for the Creature Catalogue fans!

I think you are right to give the monsters a few days to shine in the sun. Dragonlance Lexicon limits its new articles to 10 per day to give each article a go in its RSS feed. People are going to need to notice these monsters going up.

It is good to have a backlog, because it is going to allow the website to continue to get updates while we create new monsters. How many have you got in the pipeline? How long will it take to get them all uploaded? (And how many new monsters can we create before you catch up with us?)

Thanks for the patience everyone, and for keeping the thing alive during the downtime.

Sorry I haven't been around so much lately. I really look forward to seeing the Creature Catalogue become a complete 3rd edition monster resource.

Maybe I should nominate this for topic of the week...

This certainly is the best news for the Creature Catalogue in a long time. If it is the "nominate" button, then I'll nominate it too.

The front page displays the last 10. I generally give them about a week for their "time in the sun".

We have around 100 awaiting upload.

At our current rate of production, I doubt we'll catch up anytime soon!
