I went to the Strategy Guide (http://www.sgcartoon.com/) website yesterday and... I get a "Cannot find server" error message. Went today, same thing. I also went to Drunk-Ass.com (http://www.drunk-ass.com) (owned by Needle's brother) and got the same error message. Are the servers down, or are there bigger problems at Strategy Guide?

Yes it is. Check the DP Archives for all of the episodes. And... the site's still down! I'd give it another day. Average server downtime is 1% AT MOST.

Hey, what's up, I'm Needle, I'm the dude who makes those cartoons. Our server was recently hacked by someone and we're in the process of moving everything to a new server. The site will be back in up one to two weeks.
As for new cartoons, I work on them in my leisure time which is pretty short these days. There will eventually be a new episode some day :o

Hey Needle,
I want to say I love your cartoons. MY favorite is the one with gradius for the NES and teh Konami code. Keep up the great work. Can you post here when you get a new site? Thnxs.

Hey, nice +1 post
Anyway, it's been 3 weeks. Are you behind schedule as usual, Needle? EDIT: ...I mean Timbo.

It's really not up to me. My brother deals with all the server issues. It'll be ready when it's ready. It's not like you've missed a new cartoon anyway :P

I know but I've watched the ones on DP about 10 times apiece and I wanna read the ones on the site!

Well, looks like whenever I type in Strategy Guide's adress, I get redirected to Drunk-Ass.com. So at least Timbo managed to fix that. Someone needs to get their priorities straight... (Strategy Guide > pics of drunk twentysomethings)

Website is back up, and new episode to follow in the next couple weeks. This is not a drill; There is actually a new episode almost finished after nearly 18 months of waiting. It's enough to make me cry :bawling:

Glad to hear you're back, buddy. I'm sure it will be worth the wait.

I'm going to bump this, because Strategy Guide is down again, and has been for the past 4 months. If anyone here can contact Needle or Timbo, please do so. I've already sent Needle a PM which hasn't been read. Maybe someone could visit the former Drunk-Ass.com (link on first post) which is now SportsPickPros.com. Needle appears as one of the "top pickers."

I'm going to bump this again, as the boards went down when I noticed this. I'd like to know whats going on too. A google search for sgcartoon doesn't even bring up the site anymore and I haven't been able to access it. Any info? I miss SG. :(
