I'm afraid lots of posts (and PMs) since yesterday would have gone away. What's happening?

Does M@X notice this issue? Confused

There is a planned server maintenance in progress.

Along with posts and PMs, new record submissions and personal ratings from the past two days were also scrubbed. Not good.

It looks like when the maintenance was done, it restored the site to the time of the last back up of site data, which seems like end of day Saturday. Maybe there is a more recent backup, but restoring that would then overwrite any new data.

My list of PA's Top 100 Albums for 1969 has gone too, which I spent virtually all day working on. Cry

Although I sympathize for your loss, no one agrees with your album rating system. So there's that.

Mmmm... and what about album numbers?? Confused

Here are the last 10 albums added:

The usual increment is +1, not +1000 !!!

What's happening? It's pretty scary! Ouch
