I told you you would never believe how far Aaron got the AI. Now it has taken over the Server and is retaliating against us humans!

Whatever the problem is it's intermittant. Right now it seems to be running very smoothly. At other times it goes very slowly.

Ya, it's working fine at the moment.

I noticed yesterday that while the web page service was crawling, it seemed to be processing and returning turns quickly.

I feel your pain, 'eh?

I can tell you the server has been up all day, but most of the day has been very slow connection, transfering files to and from, waiting on the pages to populate, etc. You might try the text Version if you aren't already. With less graphics to load it might perform a little better for you.

Hmm. Shrapnel's been slow off and on lately too. Perhaps a bunch of new people bought Gold and are overloading the servers?

Ya, it's crawling again. It'd be interesting to see if its traffic is really high. I bet it's some DOS attack or other traffic deluge probably on a site near PBW but not it itself.
