A report of a router failure may not be totally true, and it could last a day. Hope not. I need my fix.

They say that it could be more than 24 hours before it is back. Not long now, but by then I will be watching the Canadian Federal Election results come in.

I hope to have everything in place and have the game back in operation by the end of the week, if the site goes up during this period you can use it, but don't expect it to stay up.

The game was a victim of a DDOS hacker attack, and had to be shut down to stop damage from being made to the system. I hope this was not an extortion attempt on the game. The game should publish the details including the IP addresses of the attackers so that we can find ways of dealing with these morons.

I would like it to be something more direct than in game. For all we know, all of our computers are infected with something that facilitated the attack, as it was a multi IP attack.
