Our hosting provider is changing the IP address for TTLG with the old IP address being disabled at some point in the next few days. It is currently 74.208.193.9 and this will change to 74.208.228.60.
DNS records have been updated for the other sites hosted here (e.g. thief-thecircle.com, sshock2.com, etc.) but currently the ttlg.com domain is still pointing to the old address. It is hoped that it can be updated but it is possible that this will not happen in time.
If this does prove to be a problem then a temporary work-around on a computer will be to add the site to your local hosts file. See this guide for an example for Windows and Unix style systems: (https://www.nublue.co.uk/guides/edit-hosts-file/). In this case the line to be added or updated would be:
74.208.228.60 ttlg.com (www.ttlg.com)Change has been made at DNS and the above change should no longer be required. If you added a line then it can be removed or commented out.

In the local hosts file: Does the url have to be a hyperlink, or should it just be plain text?

Just plain text. I've updated the post above to remove the link to make it clearer

Change has now been made at DNS level so workaround should no longer be required.

Other than a little slower access for about 24 hours, I never noticed any problems.
