Hello tech guys,
What's going on and when we can expect it to end?
I know that all my pbem buddies are having this issues, and it's not only OOB but other slitherine games too.
It's like Y2K bug all over again but this time it's real.

Try again this morning. The forums seem to be back to normal and one of the Slitherine folks linked forum and PBEM issues in a private message, indicating that the issues may have been related.

Oops. Spoke too soon. Hey Slitherine, how about a server upgrade? :-(

Update from Iain McNeil:
We seem to be under a sustained DOS attack. We've been trying to get the server upgraded to help but there is no quick fix and we're hoping it just ends soon...

If the target of the DDoS attack site slitherine.com,
it would be good if the PBEM server was on another ip-address.
