  • what the hell just happened?



    How did traffic spike so fast that the forums were disabled?

    A lot of searches going on at the same time? That takes an inordinate toll on the server IIRC

      It lasted about five minutes, I think.

        I was preparing a post for Galactic Overlord. Missed the heavy traffic, it seems.
        I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

              There was a power failure in Greece this morning, but I don't think this is related .

                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                        You should edit that post above, Solver.

                        Figures that the site would go down just as I try to access.

                        So what's up Markos? Still search spikes?

                          It lasted much longer than just 5 min for me. Couldn't get anything but the busy screen for half an hour.

                            In the old days the server occasionally worked.
