Today's been one heck of a day for us on the server end :) This morning, between 01:25 and 02:25 EST we suffered a series of router
crashes in our New York City location caused by a massive spike in
traffic. The symptoms were high packet loss and then total outage. The problem then repeated itself this afternoon. Later today, we filled up one of our hard disks logging MySQL errors... oops. And finally, to top it all off, the router finally bit it when its hard drive crashed.

Hopefully that's it for our problems today. I hope you're having a better day than us ;)

Drew great job. Stuff happens. These are good problems. I think you handled it wonderfully. I have been through this many times. It really sucks.

I will stand by my story that I lost 2 full points on my challenge entry though... LOL!!!!!
