    I have been having intermittent trouble accessing the site all day. I have been getting a bad gateway messege almost every time I check the site. even when I try the mobile site and or use a different browser/computer.

    Best answer at this point is that Challenge traffic (and constrant refreshes for the latest updates) brought the server to a grinding, smoking halt. I'm nominating it for "most spectacular failure"

    Second. The users are hammering the server into tiny unresponsive bits.

    OK, well I'll stop hitting F5 every three seconds. My finger is getting a blister anyway.

    hmm I wonder if the increased load has anything to do with my bowser trying to spawn a new google window every 30 seconds or so...

    There are about 10 threads about that and how to fix it.

    If it's still hitting you, your browser is VERY aggressively caching the config file that's doing it (since it's been changed for about a day and a half now).

    And no, that wasn't it at all.

    I didn't even ask because computer problems always turn out to be my fault. Glad it wasn't on my end for once!

    in my case I didn't ask 'cause I probably wouldn't understand the answer
