Yeh. The bandwidth usage got too heavy for even Web1000 to handle, so it says the site was suspended, but it's probably going to stay that way indefinitely.

This'll most likely cause me to scrap plan for Bill Cullen Month in February since I doubt I'm going to have the time and energy (and willpower for that matter) to look for a REAL ISP and relaunch the site for the third time between now and then. I'm sorry for those who were looking forward to it. I know I certainly was looking forward to doing it, but what can ya do?

Gee, 20,100 hits since the site's birth in Mid-November! Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted. *sniff*

It certainly was enjoyed while it was around, and you deserve many thanks for the work you put into it.

I very much enjoyed the page and appreciated your effort. Many of these games/pilots I had never seen in any form and for that, I am grateful.

Maybe when bandwidth gets better and when more collectors digitize their collections there'll be BitTorrents of game shows. Oh, what a day that would be.

Well, It was a great page while it lasted. Thanks for all of your great contributions, Jamie. The page will be missed.... [sniffle]

Well, as the late Bob Hope would say: Thanks for the memories!

It really was a great site and resource. Thanks for putting it (temporarily) online!

I appreciated your work as well, Jamie. Sorry to see it go.

If this page comes back again in the future, you're going to have to be more careful on a limited bandwidth page next time.

Mr. Obvious.

So, tell us, how can he do that?

You should still take up my suggestion on paying for your website, instead of relying on free services. That way (depending on the comapny you deal with) you can have all the traffic you want without worrying about bandwidth.

Look, you and bandit gave answers that aren't revolutionary. The problem is does he really want to spend money on something that he will soon discontinue anyway.

Precisely. I didn't really want to invest money into something that wasn't going to really last at this juncture. The next time the page returns, which will probably not even happen this year, it will be on a real webhost and will stay up for the long-term.

Of course if someone else with the time and a reliable webhost beats me to it, that'd be nice too!
