Our website is on a grid of multiple servers with power redundancy and uplink redundancy. Not even Shishka himself can cause our server to fail.<\/p>\n<p>The system I am talking about would be GCSA&#8217;s main production rig. It has always had mild overheating issues, but these issues reached their peak a few days ago. The processor core temperature was near 250 degrees fahrenheit. The protective thermal shutdown did not occur. Instead, the computer allowed itself to bake.<\/p>\n<p>These high temperatures caused some of the solder points on the motherboard to melt loose. Now the computer can&#8217;t even turn on. Fortunately, the HDD appears to be intact; so our production files are all safe&#8230; just unreachable at this time.<\/p>\n<p>Our upcoming game, <em>Dimesional<\/em>, <strong>will<\/strong> be produced. It is a dream project that Flanders and I have had for a very long time, and it will come to pass. This is just a slight delay until we can repair or replace our needed equipment.<\/p>\n<p>For those wondering, it was indeed Miller&#8217;s fault. He smushed a brownie into the main cooling fan.
