Any interest in making this into an iPhone app? I'm an iOS dev and would definitely be willing to spend sometime helping you convert it!

What happened to Ootakamoku.com?



Or is it just me?

Looks like it is down, for me too.

I did like it a lot, would be sorry it it is gone.

So … can you actually solve problems there? For me it is online, yes, but it doesn't show me any problems, instead I still get the message shown above.

Oh , that's correct, same problem for me...

Likewise.

However, I tried to get in touch with the owner a couple of months ago on L19 and couldn't. I think the project might be abandonware... pity, it's a very cool thing.

Works fine for me !

This is odd because today I can’t even connect to the side, instead I get “The host does not exist.”

hmm now it's not working anymore (I can reach the site but not solve problems)

seems it comes and goes, I could solve problems this morning

Ootakamoku is BACK!

(only it seems broken again b/c it always says “WRONG” every time I place a stone (yes, that was kidding))

<edit>

Now it gives me those errors again (“Something went wrong when I tried accessing the server.”)

I swear I was able to login and do a few problems there just a few minutes ago … hope it wasn’t me who broke it again

</edit>

Is it just me or is Ootakamoku back — and working — for everybody?

Ok. I promise (PROMISE!!!1) that I will never again promote Ootakamoku unless it’s been working again for a week at least. It worked for me for about 15 minutes, then I left the site, and when I returned it gave those errors again.

Is the site down for anyone else? I'm seeing a standard domain parking page now.

Yes I see the same.

This was a wonderful site. I'd love to help host it.

IIRC there was a user on KGS with this username … maybe try to get in contact?

And a few weeks ago I was on a Scandinavian website of where I found Ootakamoku, but now I can’t find it again found it again

I also loved ootakamoku.com, very sad it’s gone.

@macelee (and others?): recently Ootakamoku was online here and commented in another thread, so they’re apparently alive and communicative … why not send them a PM and offer co-operation?

I sent a PM 2~3 days ago and have not received a reply. It's a shame, really. Loved that site.

I wrote a PN to their Facebook account just this moment (don't know whether they’ll see it since we’re not “friends” there) and notified them of the current talk here … may do the same on Google+ if I get no reply.

Speaking of trashing websites where the developer hasn't got around to something yet, what happened to http://www.Ootakomoku.com? A lot of people liked it, but since it became "unusable" there hasn't been a word here about it from you.
