Bravo! Great work.

I´m really enjoying track 3 on the Ibara page. Some of my favourite VGM ever! :D

I was up on there within the last week, so whatever's causing the trouble must be relatively new...

Huh. I tried going there some weeks ago and also couldn't reach the site. Thought it was long dead (seen people talk about it in an old thread).

It looks like the domain lapsed yesterday. Someone should tell the guy who ran this site, so he can grab it before it's too late.

Yeah, I was there last week, as well.

How lame. I really liked that site, too. :(

Is this site hosted in the UK? Because I've tried on several different networks here in the US and it hasn't worked for awhile now.

That's odd. I've no idea who hosts it but it's strange that it shouldn't be accessible in the US.

There was a period a while back when it was going down a lot. Have you tried today?

Have you tried through a UK base proxy? Works fine here.

Thanks for the tip, I tried http://www.daveproxy.co.uk and indeed it did work, although slowly. Just a shame the site is not accessible from the US anymore.

Does sixtoe even know about this problem?
