Hi all, I've noticed quite a number of test messages from various members wondering if the Audyssey list is down etc. Let me begin by assuring all of you that the list is not down, and everything is working just fine. It just so happens that now that we are into the summer season list traffic is a lot less than it normally is. particularly during the weekends where people are away doing something else. I'm not certain why list traffic is less than normal other than the fact it is now summer for a lot of people, particularly in North America and Europe, and perhaps people aren't on list as often as they usually are during the colder months of the year.
Anyway, rather than bombarding the list with test messages one way to find out if the list is working or if you are getting all of the list messages is to head over to http://www.audyssey.org and check the recent archives by date. If the most recent message in the archive matches what you have received then your list subscription and e-mail is working fine. Its just a matter of low list traffic. We the moderators would prefer you try this before sending x number of test messages asking if the list is working. Another, perhaps more constructive, way to test the list is simply to open a new thread or topic on the list. Rather than sending a test message asking about if the list is working simply write a message about some game and if it goes through you know the list is working. Perhaps in the process some people will respond and list traffic will pick back up again. Which is your aim in the first place I think. In either case while test messages aren't banned there are better more constructive ways to find out what you want than resorting to test messages. So please if you are wondering about the lists status try one of the above before resorting to test messages. Thanks.
