Given the downtime for today (Oct 9th, 2010) due to the UPS
Failure, I propose giving every user that visited on Oct 8th,
2010 a free entry in the visit log (or whatever the name may be)
for Oct 9th, 2010.  It shouldn't matter to other users (at least
not for reasons I can think of, correct me if I'm lapsing here),
but having your streak broken by a datacenter issue would be a
bit unfair to others going for the badge in a time period
without an outage.  For those unaware this is for the Enthusiast
and Fanatic badges, which are for consecutively visiting the
site for 30 and 100 days, respectively.  share|improve this
