IMAO Headquarters, 9:15 AM

Hi, who’s calling in.

Hi. It’s Basil calling in for the outage service call.

Hi, it’s Frank calling in, too. So, why is the Website down?

Um…

I pay you clowns to keep the Website running while I’m focused on Towerfall … um, focused on other work.

Yeah, I’ve emailed Harvey about it already since he’s the only one that actually does anything.

Then what am I paying you for?

Um. I keep the snack machine stocked.

From the looks of you, only half the snacks actually make it into the machine.

Excuse me, Mr. Fleming? I’ve contacted the hosting company. They said something about bots and Amazon and the Russians.

Told you I didn’t break it.

So, how long were we down?

Around 14-15 hours. Everything that was scheduled to post now has. The database is clean. But I’m still getting phone calls from readers. And this one guy who wants you to extend your car’s warranty.

Tell the readers we’re back up. Everything’s back to normal. And send calls from that warranty guy to Basil’s extension.

Oh! Thank you! It’s lonely in the supply closet.

Now everybody get to work! I need to find my Xbox controller.

Thanks, boss.

Thank you for calling IMAO World Headquarters. How may I direct your call?


And here I thought IMAO went “Dark” in solidarity with all those kids protesting for the right to be easier targets.
I suspected it was the work of Antifarcists.
Y’all finally got it fixed?
That’s not an entirely accurate transcript.
Close enough for government work, or for CNN. [BIRM]
