Just a little advance notice....

On Sunday, a number of forum features will be disabled, so that the forums are able to run as fast as possible with a large number of users

The current chatroom will be disabled during Sunday. There will be a temporary chatroom created on a different URL to the one currently linked to with the 'FlashChat' link above, so that chatroom use doesn't slow down the forums. I'll publish the URL for the temporary chatroom when I've set it up.

A number of other things have also been done in advance, so that the forums are able to run at their optimum speed.

oh, I forgot to include that they'll also be a special Glastonbury show on eFestivals Radio from 8am too, and that any messages I might get from See Tickets or Glastonbury will be said on there, so it'll be the place to be for great tunes and the best info. :)

I have a radio app on my phone, standard lets you listen to a ridiculous amount of radio stations online.  What would I search for to find the efests one?  efestivals didn't get anything back.

presumably you're talking about the SHOUTcast radio app for iPhones?

I'd very stupidly taken 'eFestivals' out of the stream title, but have just put it back.

It's not currently registering on the shoutcast radio station lists, but it takes a little while to re-appear after a change. So it should be searchable by the word 'efestivals' shortly (I'll keep checking and make sure that it is).

Errrrm no I use tunein radio which is brilliant, have downloaded the shoutcast one temporarily for use on Sunday though, cheers :)

Edit:  Hmmm, did a search for eFestivals and it didn't come up, how do I find it?  Sorry

I emailed TuneIn earlier today and they have replied to say they are going to add it to their directory.

I guess the shoutcast app uses something different for its searches than the shoutcast website, cos it's searchable on the shoutcast website since I sorted it earlier.

I know from months ago that it can be searched for and found in the app, so I guess it might appear in the next 24 hours or so.
