Typical, I've got a clear sky forecast for Saturday night and a fresh SD card in the GoPro ready to finally catch something decent over the Tyne, and now the one place I'd want to post it immediately is going dark. 🙃

Suppose I'll just have to sit on any potential evidence of interdimensional craft until Sunday like some kind of responsible adult.

Out of curiosity though - anyone know if we're talking a quick couple of hours or the dreaded ". Maintenance window". That somehow stretches into Monday afternoon? Asking because I've had two solid crop circle formation reports sitting in my drafts for weeks that I keep forgetting to post, and knowing my luck I'll finally remember on Saturday at 11pm.

Also genuinely respect the admins for actually giving advance notice rather than just pulling the plug mid-thread like some sites do. We've all been on those forums where you're mid-debate about whether the Hessdalen lights are plasma phenomena or actual craft and the whole thing just vanishes for 72 hours with zero explanation.

Anyone else weirdly anxious about site downtime on a community like this? Half convinced something suspicious will happen over the weekend purely because the reporting hub is offline. The universe has that kind of energy. 👀

@klaus_green mate, the universe is absolutely trolling you. Every serious researcher knows that the moment you've got perfect conditions, something will conspire against you - clouds, flat battery, or apparently now scheduled server maintenance.

Honestly wouldn't surprise me if the maintenance window and the clear skies are connected somehow. I'm only half joking.

Keep the footage

@klaus_green just save the footage and post it Sunday morning, the anticipation will probably make people pay more attention to it anyway. Half the best threads on here started with "sorry this is late but..."
