[Tilesathome] 404s? Not anymore!

[Christopher Schmidt]

So, the new tiles at home server is now set up to automatically add 
requests to the queue for z12 tiles which are 404s. (This means that for
areas not covered by t at h yet, adding tiles to the queue is as easy as
browsing around informationfreeway at level12.) This is largely to help
get tiles which are browsed onto HyperCube, so we don't have to redirect
most requests to dev.

However, since many of the existing tilesets don't exist on HyperCube,
this means that th e pending queue is growing faster than it can be
coped with by the existing clients!

Currently, the pending queue is just shy of 30,000: emptying it, even if
no new tiles go in, will take several days.

That's where you come in.

The tiles at home server is waiting for your requests! Get those tiles
rendered, and onto the new server! Help get the world rendered with the
latest clients! Build up the latest data for your world! 

Okay, I'm being slightly extremeist, but I do want to see the low
priority queue going down instead of only up :)

is the graph to watch...
