Postini Fixed, E-mail Operational

Raven's Avatar
With the help of Blue Host we have fixed the Postini problem. When this feature was activated it was not fully synchronized with our account. That was rectified and we are up and operational.

You can now e-mail us at our usual e-mail address. So, please send all e-mail to cwfgamecast@wargamingforums.com like before. In fact, if you would send us a test e-mail we’d appreciate it. Postini was a little overzealous and we want to make sure all legitimate e-mails get through.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. If you e-mailed us from 5pm EST on 9/8/10 until 4:30pm EST on 9/9/10 we did not get your message. Please resend it to us.

Our E-mail is NOT Working Thanks A-Lot POSTINI

We recently installed Postini to protect our e-mail address from viruses and spam. It seems that Postini is too aggressive and has not allowed any e-mail to reach us since 5pm EST on 9/8/10. If you e-mailed us between then and now we did not receive it.

Please re-send your e-mail to me at jon@frakmedia.net. This is an alternative e-mail address I use for my work with the Battlestar Galactica Wiki and FrakMedia LLC.

We have Blue Host, our web hosting company, looking into the issue to help us resolve this. At worst we will remove the Postini protection. This overzealous “protection” is much worse than the few spam that was received.

We apologize for this inconvenience.

Battleground Games Plainville Opening Day Pictures

As promised in our article Battleground Games & Hobbies is OPEN we have the pictures from opening day at BG Plainville.

It was a lot of fun there and we spent over 8 hours live-blogging, taking pictures, hanging out, eating at Piezoni’s (you totally have to try them) and playing War at Sea where an amazing six year old beat me in a 100pt match. Please enjoy the pictures, they (for some unknown and odd reason) are displayed in reverse order.

Battleground Games & Hobbies Plainville is OPEN

We’re here at 25 Taunton Street in Plainville for the opening of Battleground Games & Hobbies Plainville. We will be live-blogging on the iPad this event for most of the day.

Since we’re live-blogging this we don’t have the usual full functionality that we normally do. We have pictures of this on our Facebook page. Be sure to check there and pictures will be showing here on the blog soon.

We got here early to find Chase Laquidara, store manager, cleaning the exterior windows. He let us in to find the finished interior. It is breathtaking. As of 10:10 a small crowd of people have shown up. A couple 40k gamers are setting up for a game while half a dozen Magic: The Gathering card players have ensconced themselves near the HD TVs, which are broadcasting NFL news.
