You missed quite awhile.
There was the first major SG anti-bot war with some severe casualties on both sides.
The first community vertical train, it was quite crazy
Someone made a 24hour 300 copies GA of Wukong
CG leaked something about SG2 by mistake, purged all comments of it and heck maybe this comment will soon be deleted too
...or maybe nothing. Maybe all the above is just me pulling your leg.
All false except one...

Yay for back finally!
Honestly, it's been pretty quiet the last week+. Someone snuck in a 1 hour long My Time at Sandrock this morning.

Man, holy crap, that really sucks. Did you lose a lot in perishables and stuff?
Glad everything's sorted out now, at least.

Not so bad; it could definitely have been worse.
I remember once when we had a city-wide outage; it really lasted just like three days, but those were hot days, and, well, we're not built for that. The scenes of small markets having to discard tons of food, all going bad due to the lack of operational fridges and freezers, were absolutely awful. At least the stuff people had at home they could theoretically cook (basically everyone here uses gas stoves; electric ones are still a rarity) and minimize losses, but, though people managed their stored water carefully (everyone has water tanks at home here), lack of running water soon became a problem too, because eventually you lack the water to cook, and, well, it was a mess, short-lived though it was. 4 days wouldn't have been all that different, but a week would definitely have been a lot worse. :/
Also, we're a coastal island linked to the continent just by three bridges, and one was not operational at the time, so imagine half a million people all up and deciding to leave an island by a single four-lane bridge, all at once. Those were fun days lol.
By the way, the cause? A maintenance accident with the single high-voltage power line we had into the city. The location of the accident? Yep. The fucking bridge. :D I guess the whole "redundancy" concept is too hard to grasp, we need our single failure points. :P (I think they've since added an underwater high-voltage line through a different route, not entirely sure though.)

Didn't miss much around here, but SpaceX launched the Starship again and caught the booster with the launch tower this time which was pretty awesome.
Edit: Actually, there was a couple updates to the site that I forgot about. You can now view stats about how many active users there are and the "1 decade" dates were changed to show years instead. There was also a few other changes. Change Log
