Subject: Downtime every evening!
For the past couple of weeks I've noticed that brainking has experienced downtime every evening, on average a couple of hours per evening starting at around 8pm GMT. Often it's back up and running by 10pm, but on ocassion has been down again shortly afterwards until around midnight GMT. These problems are occuring every day here, and whilst intermittent, there does seem to be a pattern to the times we're getting the page cannot be displayed errors.

I've spoken to a few other people who are having problems getting on the site between those times and was wondering whether this is just a temporary problem, or something caused by rush hour traffic...lol.

This is a really great site and I'm sure you'll all agree that Fencer is highly dedicated to it! I for one, appreciate all the time and effort he devotes to the site, both in keeping it running and also in research and providing such a good range of games! Keep up the excellent work Fencer!
Everyone agree this is the best games site there is? :)

Also wondering... is there any way you would be able to update the brainking info site when downtime is expected to last a while or if there is a known cause. We would really appreciate the updates!

I have not been alert enough to document the times, but probably every day there is a time when the site is so slow it's not worth waiting for, and maybe every other day *at least* I can't access it at all for at least a couple of hours. I know Fencer is and has been doing a great job, but I have to admit this is getting annoying and I hope it will be permanently fixed soon.

...every evening and the sluggishness and as Angus stated not worth waiting for. I thought perhaps it was my dial up but I have been making my moves at my office puter which is quite sophisticated...and goodness me, lag time is exasperating. What gives? I recently joined, like the site and I agree Fencer appears to be a cool person. Wonder what is up? Good to know it isn't just my imagination! :D

I am having the same problems in the evening. Sometimes,I get on the site and right in the middle of a move I get the message Brain King.com is to busy to use right now. This may last a few minutes,or several hours. I'm using a webtv.

The last three days have been frusterating for alot of people. I for one have gotten alot more work done the last few days as the site is harder to get in to. I dont think it matters where in the world you are or the time of day either. Saturday at 8:30 EST I wouldnt think the server would be clogged up enough to stop me from getting it but alas.. 2 hours later and I finally get in..

More memberships mean bigger, better, faster server PASS IT AROUND!!!!
