But I just get this \/

I read on the FAH forums that the block:

just means that the server is out of work. But what's the rest of it mean?

The "Getting WU" server is down right now. I just tried it a few minuets ago myself. The uploading of completed WU's is running fine. We may have to wait 8am left coast time to get anything.


Edit post ...

Server just came back up!

It works fine for me too now, I just wish they put some more work up soon!
