And while you're at it. The multiplayer server needs a 9.07 installation and there's not a word about it on the forums (that I've found).
Thankfully the 9.07 is available for download on My Page...

It's like the tides, flow and ebb. Right now, it's low tide (compare with OP):

Maybe it does have something to do with the tides! Normally, we see little change; these are neap tides. Occasionally, however, we see much larger changes such as the difference between your original post and my image above; these are spring tides. There is definitely an ebb and flow effect here. I will track these movements on a spreadsheet and see if they match up at all with the tide tables. :|

If so, it must have been a rip tide for it looks normal to me now.

Paraphrasing Blondie:

Never give up
Never give up
The tide is [low] but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kind of [boy]
Who gives up just like that
Oh, no

It's not the things you do that tease
And hurt me bad
But it's the way you do the things you do to me
I'm not the kind of [boy] who gives up just like that
Oh, no

The tide is [low] but I'm holding on

The amount of stickied threads is enormous, and many are extremely old threads with little actual utility.

I just noticed the change (been away for a while). Already have it perma-zoomed at 110%; thinking of 120%.

Edit: 120% it is. Looks a bit wonky, though.
