Title: Houston, We've Got a Problem!

Or perhaps "London, We've Got a Problem!" would be more appropriate.

Some of you may have noticed that our server went down several times today. I couldn't figure out how that was possible because we've never been knocked offline, even under some extreme loads.

Well, the server took a beating from the British today. Over the past year, we've been getting a lot of global traffic and this afternoon we had a spike unlike anything we've ever seen before. I'll just show you the numbers and leave it at that.

Must be their new storage auction show that's generating all of the interest from there.

Actually, that was my first guess too, but most of the U.K. traffic was coming from Auction Hunters related articles. I'll look into that when I have some free time.
