Cartoon Network 2015 Power Outage

AUTHOR’S NOTE: This creepypasta is not intended to be a copy of the MANY, and I mean MANY pastas about TV channel hijackings and incidents on this wiki. I found inspiration in these pastas and am simply elaborating on my silly little idea. Also do not take this story too seriously, as I’m trying out a writing style I don’t often use. 
FOR CLARIFICATION: The story is written in the perspective of someone who didn’t outright witness the incident, but is researching the matter.
On February 12th, 2015, around 2-3PM, Cartoon Network’s RSEE feed unceremoniously went off air for the rest of the day. Viewers reported issues ranging from “We’ll Be Right Back!” screens to parity issues across multiple locations where said feed is available, as the people regulating it had no idea of how to deal with the predicament they’ve found themselves in.
Moreover, it seems that information regarding this blackout is rather sparse, aside from some arbitrary screenshots. As such, take this with a grain of salt - at least until more info surfaces.
==Rough Timeline==
This is a rough timeline of the blackout. 
===2:00-3:00PM CEST===
A set of bumpers plays, specifically announcing that an episode of TAWOG is up next. Screen goes black for a few seconds and a title card in the “Check It 4.0” style appears exclaiming…Hold on to your hats! We’ll be right back!…every 30-45 seconds.
===4:30PM CEST===
An attempt at going back on air (albeit, a rather poor one) was made. The aforementioned TAWOG episode that was schedueled to air over an hour ago was played, although it was cut short due to more technical difficulties. Audio would occasionally tend to distort or glitch out, and the video would disappear and come back in the span of a second or two (which was rather common for the feed, speaking from experience).
===4:50-6:00PM CEST===
Oddly enough, programming resumed “normally” for the time being, until an episode of Regular Show freezes. Around 5:50PM CEST (the timeframe of Regular Show’s freeze frame) the screen is filled by the image of a BSOD. This means the feed was recorded and broadcasted off of a PC, most likely due to the issues related to power.
===Rest of the day===
After the power cut, Cartoon Network remains off air for the rest of the day.
==Compensation==
The next morning, CN aired a bumper advertising a compensation DVD featuring all episodes that were schedueled to air during the blackout, barring the one’s that made the cut during the recorded segments.We’re sorry for the technical issues yesterday. As an apology, we’re offering a compensation DVD featuring all the episodes you didn’t see! Please register for your DVD at cartoonnetwork.com!The DVD is extremely rare, many people didn’t bother with it, as it really wasn’t worth it to them. The ones that do own it reported it not working at all or having certain episodes glitch out or are corrupted from the get-go - most likely because of how quickly these discs had to be manufactured.
==Conclusion==
This blackout is very much still shrouded in mystery, and the intentions (or lack there of) behind the event are unknown. Perhaps it was a fruitless attempt at a hijack, or an intern messing with a setting which they shouldn’t have touched. Either way, the incident itself varied from country to country, which means that someone could’ve interfered with it all, or the internal team was just incredibly incompetent.
That’s all. I’ll update this article if I find some more information.
