Awards link: bad gateway

[PaulTV]

Not really that big of an issue (only few will even notice), but the My Awards link (https://apps.foldingathome.org/awards) gives a bad gateway error.

It's been like this since the last DB outage ... I'm trying to find someone who can fix it ...

[PaulTV]

Yeah, I saw this pretty much since the hardware issues late last week. But now that the stats database seems to be running as usual again, I thought I'd mention it

[toTOW]

It has been fixed !

You need to specify arguments to make it work. Without arguments, it yields to an error 500.

Oh goody! I'm nowhere near you in number of points (nope, it's not a contest), but hopefully by the end of Feb I can subscribe to that elusive and exclusive club of folding billionairs...

It is a contest. Why else award points and have a leaderboard?

[PaulTV]

It's the olympic thought: taking part is more important than winning. And as long as there are 1000+ ranked higher than me, I'll stick to that...

We can treat it like Field Day in amateur radio: It's technically not a contest, but an emergency preparedness exercise and recruitment event, but everyone still wants to win the highest number of points for bragging rights.
