Are there any plans to get that bitbath.org (or a similar) site back up and running? Or this site?

I had quite a number of ideas to improve my bot, but apparently this site runs twice a year only.

The overall ranking hasn't changed for weeks now.
The subrankings (challenges http://www.hacker.org/challenge/top.php and puzzle rankings like http://www.hacker.org/brick/?showhigh) are still alive.

Perhaps some cron job died and needs to be restarted?

Same here. Perhaps to make it less easy. Regarding the Ringstellung: It doesn't really matter. We didn't know the Walzenstellung (the initial three letter code) anyway.

Fortunately the "Ringstellung" (which determins the turnover position) was left unchanged. So it was possible to brute force those abt 1000000 possibilities with probable words.

Nice challenge!
