No issue with the requested reload.
I will hold off on playing my turn for now.
And sorry for taking so long to get back to you about this.
And for the record, just in case it comes up again, I am in the Alaska Time Zone.

The game on PBSpy is showing as offline, so it won't let me reload. It's been doing that periodically and usually resolves itself, but I'm not sure if I'll be back at my PC in time. I can check from my phone later potentially. I've added Superdeath as another admin option on PBSpy. It would probably be good to have an actual player or two on there as well for quicker response - have any of you managed games/reloads on PBSpy before and would feel comfortable doing it?

I've sent a message to Zulan. This issue seems near-constant with this game and is preventing any changes.

It's done this a bunch of times, and it immediately goes back to offline. I've tried a few times and got 500 errors each time. Something is off on the config side for this game, so we're going to have to hope Zulan can figure it out.

So, I reached out to Zulan. He said he can look into it, but that it might be "July" before he could do so. As a result, there's currently no way to do a reload for the game. PBSpy is the only method, and something is misconfigured because the game management screen is either 1) inaccessible due to appearing offline or 2) throws 500 errors anytime you try.
Unfortunately, it appears your options are to pause some unknown length of time - at least 1 week - or to live with the issue. I'm hoping Zulan is indeed able to look into this and figure out a solution because even if you do eat this, at SOME point a reload will be necessary. But in the meantime, this is all I can offer. I have compared the PBSpy config side-by-side with PB77 (which is running fine), and there are no visible differences, so there must be a misconfiguration server-side.

Well I wouldn’t mind some time to catch up, but I haven’t been regular turnplayer.

But it depends on how you guys feel and if you are enjoying the summer or want to press on. Any way I can make it up to you if you are happy to wait a bit?
vacation photos, and you can doordash some food to me.

I am not bothered by waiting. Might be an opportunity for me to finally report.
Scooter, would it mess up reload opportunities if I log in and out several times during pause to look around and grab screenshots?

A week or more seems like a long time to wait for such a small issue, but if you will be on vacation anyway, and since we will need to have the ability to reload eventually...
Waiting for a little while is alright with me.
Happy vacation.
