Boxing Day

Suleiman is working well today. All systems Go.
His clock seems to be 2-5 minutes behind, but that seems to be the norm.
Yesterday he gave me the same podcast (Affirmation of the Day) 3 times throughout the day.
Today, he only read it once, and at the appropriate time.
How are the other rabbits out there doing?

ETA: Well, he's now given me the Affirmation of the Day 2 more times, has given me a musical nabcast that I unsubscribed from yesterday, and I'm realizing that he hasn't done Tai Chi in a few days. Is anyone else getting Tai Chi?

Great idea for a blog.

My brand new bunny is now mute after 1 day of use (as of early afternoon, 26th Dec, UK). From yesterday afternoon until this morning she did the talking clock, moods and messages from the nabaz.com website OK but now all she does is flash a red nose light instead of reading the message. She also rotates her ears and occasionally does other light sequences before and/or after the red flashes.

Have checked volume dial, tried disconnecting and reconnecting power but no luck.

No idea how to tell if this is my problem or the servers, although the weight of evidence seems to favour the latter (judging by similar problems over Christmas 2006 - just too much demand?).

It seems like if she is flashing a red nose and moving her ears, she is working "properly" just not getting the right signals from the nabaz servers...

Is she doing any Tai Chi? (if you have asked her to) I just realized that mine hasn't done Tai Chi in days... just curious if others aren't doing it either.

That's what I thought. As I said in the forum post, she does the normal "I'm listening" noise when I hold the button down so I don't think it's a hardware problem or whatever.

She was doing Tai Chi but I think she's stopped. It's hard to tell though - what with no sound, often long delays in receiving messages and my relative inexperience at retrieving and archiving messages, I'm not absolutely sure what she's doing...

But I think she's not doing Tai Chi or talking clock anymore, just flashing her nose red for the messages I send.

(I meant to say Tai Chi, or talking clock, or moods)

Well, mine has now gone offline (and has been that way for a couple of hours now). His purple glow is just solid as opposed to blinking. It did this a couple of days ago and all of the sudden came back to life a few hours later.
I wonder if maybe they've been working on multiple servers and maybe you got hit earlier in the day than I did.
Thanks for the info about Tai Chi...I'll have to look into why mine is no longer even attempting it.

I kinda nicked your idea for a bunny-related blog. Hope you don't mind. n.n You'll find it here: http://www.its-a-trap.com/rabbit (feel free to delete my post if you don't want the URL here)

I unboxed my tag/tag on the 25th, as did my dad - we've been having sporadic problems with connection ever since. Mine's currently doing nothing.

I don't think he's ever done any Tai Chi either.

The same kind of outage happened at a similar time yesterday too - this morning, everything seemed nice and fluid, I was getting regular clock updates and even some moods through, but it all seemed to just stop at about 10:30 - 11 this evening.

So very frustrating. I've sent an email to Violet asking them what kind of company they're running - and asking them to implement some kind of service-status page.

If it's planned maintenance, that's all well and good - but advance warning of such would be super-special-awesome.
