Well **** happens all the time. Thanks for this really fast temp. fix.

Still I wonder, why doesn't the MAL updater have an offline mode, at least while the server is maintained?
Surely you can't update the primary files on the servers and you can't use some advanced functions - like adding new series or manga (or for example editing your own comments/blog), but the updater could at least save the data for the files which are currently been watched/read. So if you increase the episode count, that's a minor detail to be updated (and could be stacked just as easily), while you can still use the listing and (auto-)playing features.

You'd have ask in the MAL Updater club for something like a cache feature when the tool can't connect to MAL.

I have just one question.

I noticed that days spent watching anime in at the bottom of each section of our list does not change as well when an episode is watched, though the other list statistics seem to update correctly. I just want to know one thing, will the days function update and correct itself well the statistics are working again? Or will it just not count the time we spent watching anime while this function is offline?

I had a same experience. Most site loads very quickly yet MAL either loads sluggishly or don't load at all.

Personally, I prefer MAL to work fine and have all the basic functions, everything else don't matters.

But .. doing that will slow down the site even more? Which is why they were disabled. Surley getting MAL back to normal at the moment is more important then statistics in a signature. They'll be up again when the problems resolved.

This is causing me a lot of worry, mainly because I can see a lot of problems when the update switch is turned back on.

Xinil, I have something you may want to look into before you do so.

I put some series from 'watching' to on-hold, but when I did so, they didn't always update, also, when I put something as, say, 26/26 watched from my watching list, the usual "do you want to set as completed" didn't show up and I had to do this myself.

Now, the 'days watched' sub-stat for the watching part of my list hasn't changed to show that, so you may want to look into the fact that moving things around may screw the stats up more than ever.

Just thought I'd point this out in case it hadn't occurred to you to check on it.

RSS feeds are still accessible. Try making it so that it can't be accessed at all. It should help a bit with the bandwidth.

Bullshit it's working. I added in stuff and that's fine, as long as I go 'edit'. But 'Day's watched/read' stay the same no matter what I do.

Or is that just a problem with me?

Yeah it does seem to be very slow in respnses these past weeks, on many occasion I could not get on due to the site being down. A question for all, does that mean when the statistic are back on, it will automatically increase the time which should have been increased if it was not for the stats being disabled?

They'll fix it eventually. No need to rush or hurry. I have to say this site is much better then my old way of keeping track. I used to use book marks for the online watches and a word pad for downloads/discs.

As for the sigs? If someone cares enough to wonder what you were watching then they will probably go look at your profile regardless. Most likely they were following the compatibility suggestions and looking for new watches.

Admittedly I might be somewhat biased as I've never bothered to set one up for myself. Regardless I find the stat feature much more useful; mostly for bragging rights. I really wish they had an easy way to add to the number of rewatches. Like a plus sign next to the anime. Plus 1 episode really doesn't do a heck of a lot for me. Or I imagine anyone else for that matter. I tend to devour entire series at a time. As is I just don't bother recording rewatches as I've lost count for most of the animes.

It is easy. Edit > put rewatched number > ok. If you don't want to update anime by episode than just set it as completed at once.
