Thought I'd run this past you guys. Bought a house last year, Cctober 7th 2016. A tree fell on my house in February 2017. (110v wires are in attic crawlspace). No electrical problems until about three weeks ago. It seems to be limited to my office. I have wiring experience. I'm wondering whether I should hire an electrician, an inspector, or complain to my energy company. Mains voltage: 118v during the day, 114.5v during the night (barebones minimum, I know) in my office. Around three weeks ago, there was a sudden brownout. (Not used to this being on Seattle City Light) Lights dimmed once- thought nothing of it. Lights came back to normal- and dimmed once again. Computer shut down- signifying a voltage drop below 110v. Called my new power company (Puget Sound Energy), and they denied any problem. Told me I had a loose 110 Neutral wire in my breaker box, because my 220 appliances worked fine. Since it was momentary, I called bullshit on their excuse. Sure enough, my Kill-A-Watt showed 113- compared to the normal 117v. Checked the outage map after the call- Over 1,300 people were without power in my area. Tonight, my power in my office went out again. There are over 7,000 reported outages, but none in my area. I noticed the lights dimmed while I was outside on the phone with 911 reporting a domestic disturbance. I was chatting with Carbonautics on Steam before I stepped out. When I came back in, the power was on, but my computer was off. I was going to call my power company until I noticed... another computer of mine on a different circuit had 13days uptime. It uses less power... but it made me wonder. I have rewired the telecommunications but not the electrics. It is dated between 1967 and 1980. There are no signs of severe circuit overload (buzzing- or "BONG" noise signifying a wire bouncing or harmonically vibrating ). I have a two-pole circuit box. 110v (for mains voltage) and 220v (for range/oven and dryer). The 220v circuits are dedicated, and the 110v are "cheater circuits". However, my office is the only one on the circuit using power- and less than 5 amps. I noticed that the old outlets in my house were wearing out when I bought the place, so I replaced them. The old outlets had ground wires resting on the outlet box, I made sure to use a direct connection with drip-loop to every outlet- hoping to eliminate arc-fault scenarios. It seemed to work great. But now, a year later... I'm wondering if I made a mistake somewhere. I know daisy-chain circuits and cheater breakers are frowned upon, but they've worked well for a year. I really don't use that much power. I guess my question is whether you think my power company or my wiring is at fault. I believe it is my power company, but it seems like my brownouts are limited to my office (though it does use the most current), and as such I wonder if I made a wiring fault.

Hi, I can't connect to the stop swatch server. Been enjoying it there but now it gets to the loading screen and when it's about finished loading, the screen flickers and goes into a loop. bringing down the console results in more page flipping fun. I tried from a clean install on another computer but same issue. Did I get banned or am I doing something wrong? Thanks

So far this week I have seen 2 server problems it crashed once today and earlier in the week it reset a map and game during a game. Just thought I would start this thread so people can post when things like this happen and we can iron out the kinks

Heya all. You may know me as the noob that hangs around the XP Save Server. Anyway, ET was working fine for me until today. Now I can't use the Server Browser or connect to IPs manually. Obviously my internet is working, and PunkBuster is enabled. Does anyone think they know what the problem might be? Thanks a lot in advance! -
Hello, So for this cfg, I have a few problems. First of all, the MOUSE3 jump button doesn't work. I don't know if this has to do with the "resetmouse" vstr or something else. Then for some reason, MOUSE3 becomes crouch. Also, I can't access the vstr "M3menu1". If someone can take a look at it and edit, that would be great. Thanks. onehand.cfg
