This is all good news! 
You can't keep a good site down. 
You got it!
Check out <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thehiptracker.com">www.thehiptracker.com</a><!-- w --> for the torrents that are currently active.
There are a few more backend issues to sort out before there is anymore of an interface.
A new tracker is up at: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thehiptracker.com/newtracker.php">http://www.thehiptracker.com/newtracker.php</a><!-- m -->
Currently the only way to add torrents is for me, or the other admins, to do it. Once we get some more of the bugs worked out, and make a decision about how we want things to work, a number of the old features will be re-introduced including user accounts, commenting, etc.
That's cool, chris!
Will the frontend be staying like that or is that a temporary thing?
It's great to see it back in whatever form though!

Yes.
Right now I am not sure. I just wanted to "keep the beat flowing" so that's why it's as plain as it is right now. I've been chatting with the other behind-the-scenes guys about what we want, and what we need, etc, and although a consensus is forming, there is not timeline, nor decisions made yet

Sorry to hear all the troubles guys, I know a ton of work goes into keeping it afloat. I went to the tracker for the first time in a bit and was confused by the look of it. Just to be sure if I decide to grab some of the Euro tours, I just click n go, no signing in or anything?
