It appears that some folks were having the issue, not everyone, and that EN World is still doing fine. Explanation at the link.
Here's a brief quote - "You may be seeing a domain landing page instead of the site; the whole of Cyberstreet (where the server, along with Circvs Maximvs, is hosted) appears to be doing the same thing."

What happened to EN World?
I used my usual link to go there and got the above page. I followed up by using a Google search and still no joy.

Vornheim Gets Boned - cue bad porn music
The Ennie Awards are coming up at GenCon in early August and the nominations have been posted at EN World. This is something that has been going on yearly now for some time. It is a good thing since it is fan based and not an industry blown horn, however this year I can say I honestly feel a bit confused by where one producted ended up in the nominations, and I'm not alone in that thinking.
Jeff Rient's mentioned this on his blog earlier today and I feel it is only right to point and say . . .
It's okay Jeff, you aren't the only person of the opinion that Vornheim should have had better than an Honorable mention in the Ennie's category it was participating in.
Best Aid/Accessory
For those that don't know, Vornheim is the brain-child of Zak S. of the blog Playing D&D With Porn Stars (warning: occasional adult content because yes, he and his players are in the adult entertainment industry).
Having seen some of Zak's creative genius on his blog and having read a number of positive reviews, I bought a copy of the book and I'm glad I did. It is a work of art, brilliant in how useful it is.
Ok, so it looks a bit odd and might be confusing if you don't take the time to read how to use it while trying to do so, but once you do you will GET IT. With grokking this book comes the understanding of how incredibly useful and nearly indispensible it will become as part of your DMing arsenal.
Don't get me wrong, a tip of the hat goes to everyone nominated in the category because they are good products, just nowhere near as innovative as Vornheim.
