Good morning! Here's a status update.

• Yesterday, there were database problems that caused the mining server to lose some shares. We were not able to determine the cause of the problems. We only know that they weren't caused by anything in our code, and that it was a Postgres problem. We fixed the issue by restarting Postgres, and it seems like everything is back to normal. Hopefully, whatever the bug was, it is fixed in Postgres 10, and won't recur again once we upgrade.
• We remain on schedule for the hardware upgrades tomorrow. Unfortunately, it turns out that the person who was receiving and holding all the equipment at the facility trashed some metal rails that were inside a server box, after we told him to retain what was inside but dispose of all the packaging materials. Therefore, we will need to take some coins offline shortly before Christmas to move the remaining servers from the ground into the rack, because the rails won't arrive until next week and we're not going all the way back to Philly and postponing the beginning of employee training just for that.
• Chris had to go to sleep after the Postgres issue was resolved, and I apologize for that. He simply couldn't function anymore, after having been awake for 22 hours. He'll make share corrections when he wakes up.
• I apologize for not being online this weekend. My motherboard failed, so I pulled forward other tasks and will now have more time to work on this system this week.

No. Chris will process the corrections automatically, in about 12 hours.
