tilde.team down?
Does anyone know the sysops?
Gemini server down for the second day, taking spellbinding and the other games with it...

Sent them a message via IRC. Not sure where in the world they live, so we'll see when they read it...

I have no commication with team, just keeping fingers crossed every day.
Somwday I will have to self-host.

What tech stack do you require? What software?

Oh, my games are just CGI scripts in C, generally <40KB binaries with no extra dependencies, with a couple of cron scripts to generate games daily, update stats and post daily results.
I care about minimalism, performance and minimal system load to be a good tilde citizen. I wish others did -- team is routinely dragged down by people running terrible python stuff.

Down again?

Just wondering whether I could offer some free gemini hosting for you. I really enjoy the games so I'd be glad to do it. I would need to set up a separate stack for it but it got me thinking.

@requiem, very kind of you. If you are serious my needs are minimal for the three games currently running. I'd given up on writing more and crappy availability is one of the reasons...
