After every game now for the last couple of weeks? This is the first time I've been able to get on since the KC game ended, and it has done this the last three weeks now. What gives?

Maybe the server can't handle the traffic or something.

Well, all I know is that in 2003,
after games, we'd see roughly 50-100 (as I recall) members sign up after games or even on gamedays.
Last year, that number doubled and we saw between 100-200 members hit the site up on gamedays.
This year, the Mane has gone so big, that we average over 400-500 member views right after the game and on gamedays. Its clear the sheer numbers are just crushing the server. Hell, even 250 people viewing at one time would crush most dedicated servers IMO.
But that's just coming from an outside observation here. I'm sure there is even more involved including bandwidth etc...

We're on a low end dedicated server, and the amount of traffic after the games pretty well brings it to its knees. We're hitting 400-500 registered users after the game, and to put that in perspective, registered users only constitute about 1/3 of the traffic we receive.
I have plans to upgrade to the high end, but it's out of reach right now...

Too bad a couple of us could not host this in our basement spread out over the US on different ISP's. I would do it for free Internet access. I can provide hardware would need help with Server config though. I am Microsoft guy. I have IIS running where Boob would be sleeping (next to sump pump) right now. Nothing much on it though I shut down the service due to viruses & worm attacks.
