Nope. I'm afraid everything will have to be completely wiped (with all accounts reset due to plaintext passwords) when/if it does come back, though.

I keep checking to see if it's back up every day, but I don't have high hopes of it coming back anytime soon. The Playstation Network is still down, too, right? /Hopes this site isn't next

The Playstation Network is back up. As for the forums, as was mentioned, they need to be completely redone- there were gaping security holes in Sony's service, which allowed the hackers in in the first place.
I wouldn't worry about this site...for one, it (hopefully) doesn't have the glaring holes that Sony did, which allowed the hackers to use a simple SQL injection to make a mess...secondly, the hackers had a lot more to gain by hacking Sony's servers than this one here...we don't have credit card numbers or personal information stored here like Sony did.

I've been Googling for the past three days, wondering what caused the Notice on the Jeopardy board...I'm sorry to learn the reason. I really miss the reading the comments, although I never joined. I see there's a place here for "Other game shows"...wonder if anyone will start some discussion on Jeopardy?? P.S. This board showed up when I Googled today...I don't recall my exact search words at the time...but it was something about Jeopardy!

Go right ahead and start a Jeopardy discussion over there- there's actually a general Jeopardy discussion thread over there already, though it hasn't been posted in in months. Feel free to go over there and start the discussion back up again.
Welcome to the forums!
