Molotov is going down from 10pm Sunday, 3rd March, for routine maintenance. We expect Molotov to be up and running again well before 11pm, but this depends on any difficulties we may encounter. Services affected: all those on Molotov, including the website, IRC and games servers. The exec e-mail address will continue to function as normal.

Well, LANs are all very well, but we ran out of room on the provisional signup list for s6 in under 48 hours - but never fear - we could be holding a really, no, really, big LAN party at the end of term 3, in week 30.

s5 has been booked for Week 3. Because Room Bookings are lame, we can’t have Friday night. Tom will mail both Room Bookings and the society who have already booked them room, to see what time they finish. If it’s a reasonable time then we’ll maybe start as soon as they finish.
