So, the site's been down for a month now, and currently, all we have is a message saying that it's down for maintenance. I figured I should explain, since anyone who isn't "in the know" is probably completely in the dark right now.
About a month ago, there was a slight issue that caused us to lose the server. We spent some time trying to figure out what went wrong, and getting it back. When we did get it back, everything on there was gone. I had backups on my computer, but parts were outdated. I also had trouble getting my account on the server set up. So we were already off to a rough start.
When that was out of the way, I started re-uploading the site and am now in the process of getting it back to date. My first priority will be getting the Pokédex finished again, since I think that's our most useful feature. Currently, all the parts that deal with moves are missing, and several of the Gen 5 moves and abilities use their Japanese names. I plan on backing up the finished Pokédex once that's done (something I thought I did before, but apparently didn't). If the site ever goes down again, we'll at least have a Pokédex right away.
After the Pokédex is done, I'll get to work on the main site, which shouldn't *knock on wood* take as long as the 'dex. Only a few things are out of date there, but I do plan on reorganizing it a bit, so that might cause some issues.
Hopefully TPM will be completely back in the coming weeks. It should, barring any further catastrophes.
So sorry it's taking so long, I'll keep working to try and get this thing up as soon as I can. Hold tight.
