Web site outage during the West Coast Teachers Charity Feis - We would like to offer our sincere apologies for the lack of performance of our system during the Sunday West Coast Teachers Charity Feis.

Our web host experienced a server failure that impacted our website. Unfortunately, the outage started just as the feis was giving us the very first score sheets of the day. The outage lasted about four and a half hours.

We have experienced some short outages at times and this usually has little or no impact on people. Unfortunately, this one impacted everyone at the feis. It took us about an hour to build a work-around for tabulation so there were definitely delays in getting those first competitions awarded. Once the work-around was in place, we were able to turn results around, to the feis, relatively quickly (about 15 minutes from the time we received score sheets).

The system was back online when we received that last few competitions of the day. All previously announced competition results were entered the normal way by about 30 minutes after the feis was done, so dancers had access to their personal results shortly after the feis was over.

We will be pursuing a couple of ways of mitigating issues like this in the future. We have to assess the reliability and responsiveness of the alternatives that we consider. Historically, our web hosting service has been very reliable but this is the second major breakdown that we have experienced with them in the last six months.

Again, we extend our apologies for the breakdown to Patricia Kennelly and Michael Dillon, the Gold Coast Irish Dancers, and to all participants who were impacted by the website outage.

Printing Number Cards - When a feis allows / requires printing your own number card, those cards will not be available for printing until after all changes are closed. There may be some last minute splits or re-balancing of splits that could impact which competition you are in. If we allowed printing before things are finalized, you could have the wrong information on your card. Typically, cards become available for printing on Tuesday evening before the feis.
