    After seeing the forums will be in read tomorrow afternoon I decided to contact the forum team be email and they have agreed to let me set up a small forum with a free provider that we can use for the duration of the downtime of this forum.

    I will post the link here in the thread tomorrow morning giving people time to register etc but thought I would post this now just to give people the heads up.

    Above is a request by them which I am sure you will all be happy to agree with, they will also be removing this thread once this forum is fully functional again.

    The forum has the basics we need copied from here and if we stick to the same format etc of posting it will make copying threads across all the more easier.

    Think that's it for now, I will update this with the URL tomorrow morning and if the forum mods have any queries I can provide the ticket ID by PM.

    Great idea JakeEy :A but I've just registered and tried posting but getting this message:

    New members are not allowed to post external links or emails for 7 days. Please contact the forum administrator for more information.

    Can you over-ride this?

    Thanks for making this JakeEy :)

    I agree with others that perhaps it will overcomplicate things for a lot of comps, but would be very useful for posting any new ones that come up that are ending over the weekend (like the Times hourlys for example)

    That's just what I was about to put! We don't want to miss out on those with short end-dates!

    Thanks for doing this, JakeEy - I've signed up to the site.
