okay everyone i must agree with the new posts, ray knows or is gonna know how pissed everyone is so CHILL. and besides if he were to give everyone the extra time to play that already is unfair cause its ended, just like any other game, who won is the person who won, you cant take that away and start over again cause its unfair. yeah it was unfair for everyone that the server lagged or whatever, but how would you feel if you won something and they take your medal back and then someone else gets it? not too good huh? thats why we all should just stop complaining cause he aint gonna restart it, maybe at the most return your credits for next round, cause i doubt he will do a refund. so in the mean time just chill. NOTHING YOU CAN DO. even if its unfair, it would be unfair to start again.

Alright I know everone is pissed and maybe you have a good reason to be annoyed but let me explain something. What just happened had absolutely nothing to do with inferior servers, it didn't have to do with bad programming, it had to do with sheer volume.
Have any of you ever heard of a DOS attack? Stands for denial of service, as few as 100 computers (probably less now) can bring servers like Google and Yahoo to their knees and those guys have fuckin server farms.
So lets do the math here, there were lets say at least 100 people online at the end. Many of you spamming your cruise buttons and hi'ing, refreshing the lists. In other words sending thousands of commands at that server per second. Also keep in mind that TS is up and running on the same server and it happens to be circuit time there, so there is a higher than normal TS load. This is in essence a denial of service attack, you beat the server so hard that others can't get in.
Does it suck? Yeah it sucks, particularly for those of you that spent at the end and couldn't use the creds. Rachael by the numbers I saw from her working likely would have won, my money was on her.
Is it or should it be a big surprise? Nope not at all.
Is it Ray or Crescents fault? No not really, yeah they could invest a shitload of cash into a server farm (far more than MC would ever make on what it charges) and many of you likely would have had the same problems.
It sucks but crying for their heads or blaming them isn't right. YOU caused the problems, you had to to take your shot at winning but that doesn't change the fact that you guys brought it to a crawl by spamming. All of you get together and do the same thing to any site and I can almost guarantee the same results.
