I was more severely affected than marco and I'm certainly going to pursue this matter to find out what happened. I imagine the Curbed team might share my curiosity.
We were significantly harder hit than either you or Marco, looks like. Our entire stack of 3 servers - app server and db master/slave - disappeared and remains offline to this point.
I'm curious about what happened, but ultimately I put this down to an unfortunate side effect of using blades.
