Ok, I think I am moving ahead with the move tomorrow from server to server.
Things went smooth last time, I hope they go smooth this time as well. And I hope this is the last move.
I have most of our stuff transfered over, it just needs to be put all together. And of course the big one is our message board. This board will be locked down, and I will backup the database and let the new host restore our database on the new server.
I also will disable the file upload page. You will have to email your exports to me. Any exports uploaded at that time I will save, you will not have to resend them.
email exports to jrlor63 AT sbcglobal.net
edit: I am sorry this will probably delay the power rankings and mid-season all conference teams, but it should only be by a couple days at the most really.
I will then change the nameservers, and we sit back and wait for the domain to propogate over. As is the case with this, different guys will get the new site before others possibly. It is supposed to take between 24-72 hours. You will hopefully know that you have the new site by the fact that you will be able to use the message board.
I will not proceed with this until I know I have the board set up on the new server, so there is a chance this does not happen tomorrow bt I am planning like it will.
We have a temporary message board set up. For some reason the last one is gone already, so I had to set up a new one.

I know this is a pain in the ass, but definetly for the better.
Any question, ask while you can. I also will of course be sending out emails as needed.
