Toadfish Emergency Contact List

[Aggie]

Time to start compiling an email list for the next time the Monastery is inaccessable.  If you'd like to be on the list, please PM any of the Admins/Mods with your preferred email address, and we'll keep an off-site listing so that we can send out a group email the next time something goes 'oops' around here.

We're also putting together a rudimentary offsite refuge so that we don't lose all contact during shutdowns - will update as things progress.


Edit :  Announcement emailed to all. Please ignore this if you have already responded to this thread.  Thanks Griffin

Is it simply possible to use the e-mail address that we registered with?  That is, are those addresses available to the admins, to use in such an off-site listing?

It seems to me, to be an easy method to compile such a list.

If you need permission, take this post as my permission to use that e-mail address (it was created specifically for forum contact use).

[Aggie]

   Busted.  Yes, we can use those emails, but prefer to do so WITH PERMISSION.  The PM option is to pretend we aren't Big Brother, Sister, Uncle or Auntie.

We'll get you on the list.  Anyone else who would like to be on the list can give permission here.

[ivor]

Is it okay if we be big sister? 

[Scriblerus the Philosophe]

Feel free to add mine.

[Swatopluk]

Permission granted (oh, that sounds so condescending )

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

I actually have my email visible. If that isn't enough then yep, sure, right, go ahead, do it, use it, put it on the list...

[Aggie]

It's good enough until we crash the place...  then they tend to be a little less accessable.   

Also, some folks don't use a 'main' email addy to register and can be hard to get a hold of via their forum emails.

[goat starer]

you may pop mine on your evil capitalist snooping list 

[Aggie]

I grabbed the yahoo one... is that the best option?

[Kiyoodle the Gambrinous]

You already have mine.

Anyway, just put it in the machinery as well.

[Griffin NoName]

Aggie is just being nice. This is a data protection exercise. You have to opt in.

Then we contact you in an emergency and you have to sort it out

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

If you are asking me, yup, that's fine, I watch that account almost daily. I can PM you other account if you like.

[Griffin NoName]

I have re-announced this topic sending emails to everyone using the email address used when registering here.

Please ignore if you have already responded to this thread.

If you have not repsonded to this thread nor PM'd Opsa, Aggie, MB, Griffin, DaveL, Swato or Mero, please let us know if you want to be on the emergency contact list and if so, with your registered email address or a different one.

Thanks Griffin

[Sibling Qwertyuiopasd]

add my registered Email address. now do i have to PM an admin, or am I good?

[Bluenose]

Yep, count me in.  I have PM'd Griffin too, to be sure to be sure.

Bluenose

[Pachyderm]

Add the Grey One as well.

PMed Aggie to keep the Data Fairies sweet...

[Alpaca]

I'd love to be on any such list. I don't remember what email I registered with, but I'm assuming it's alexoedelman@gmail.com, in which case, please use that email. If I registered with a different email, please use alexoedelman@gmail.com. Which is all a really redundant way of saying the same thing.


The first post of this thread mentions an off-site meeting place, in case of emergency. Has anything been done to this end? If not, I would love to make myself marginally helpful and set up something like this, with permission, of course.

Yes, if you are on the emergency list you will have been emailed.

otherwise known as The Toadfish Monastery Hermitage - you can register there for emergencies. In fact we've hardly had to use it despite server problems and should need it even less once we get the proposed super MB server.

Nice offer though - you could always set up the emergency site for emergencies with the emergency site !

[Alpaca]

Yet another bulletin board? (Geddit?)

[Griffin NoName]

Yet another bulletin board? (Geddit?)

Yada, yada, yada.

[Alpaca]

More like, YaBBa YaBBa YaBBa. (I think this is going too far.)

[Griffin NoName]

What I say three times is true.

[Griffin NoName]

stellinacadente ----- I have added you to the emergency contact list since you turned up at The Hermitage

[Aphos]

"You have OUR permission."

<nods head regally>

[Griffin NoName]

Aphos, I have added you to the emergency contact list, but cannot  find you at The Hermitage, either currently or historically, so you will need to register there if you wish to go on retreats. Let me know if you do register, then I can see you are accredited with Toadfish status

[Griffin NoName]

I have been checking the contact list for one or two newcomers and email addi changes.

Anyone else who has changed their email address, let me know.

[Aggie]

I have more...? 

But the old ones still work and forward to the new ones.

[stellinacadente]

Please feel free to use my registred email in the Emergency contact list

[Earthling]

Please add me to the heap. Hopefully my email won't be changing any time in the next 20 years or so.

[Griffin NoName]

I have added you to the list Earthling.

[Black Bart]

Mad Willium Bonney alias Brudder Curzen told me to give you the message that he hasn't deserted he is having problems connecting to the Monastery.  The problem had something to do with him being in a library!

Now, exactly what Mad Willium was doing in a library I do not know...perhaps they have books written in Pirate Speak.

[Aggie]

Thank ye Bart....  bin wurried aboot him.  P'raps they be holdin' him for ransum fer not payin' orf his fines?

Or mebbe they  warrn't happy with the job he done bildin the Royal Portsmouth Museum:


Ow Mad Willium talked 'em into belivin he were an arkitekt is beyond me. 

[ivor]

I sent him a password request email.  Don't know if he got it though...

[Opsa]

Yarrrrgggghhh, thankee MB. I hope he shows up.

[Griffin NoName]

Bumping This.

Please check your emergency contact email (as in your profile) has not changed - ie. is it still functioning?

Also, anyone not having Opted IN, please consider doing so.

[Swatopluk]

Any special reason?

[Griffin NoName]

Yes. The cellestial stratisphere is about to reverse engineer the barber shop.

[Darlica]

Duly noted and corrected.

[Griffin NoName]

Darlica - have amended your email in our emergency lists. Thanks.

[Roland Deschain]

The email address on my profile is completely valid, so please consider this my emergency contact. Other than that, Griffin, Qwerty, and Black Bart are able to contact me on Facebook, so let that be a stand-in.

[Griffin NoName]

We (grandiose) shall consider that an Opt In. 

[Roland Deschain]
