[strongvis]

just me?

icq.com was down the 2 days ago.

I even asked a few people over MSN and they confirmed it didnt resolve.


Maybe some haters are so mad @ pool they hacked thier servers :-D


Just to let you know, I have no clue whats up so dont accuse me.

I assume Pool is down because they are in the electrical grid (NY, Montreal, Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, etc) that is down.

I wonder what would happen if this happened earlier in the day during drop time?

 

[deepstar]

Is that what has happened? All my sites are down and they are all hosted in NYC. Does anyone know anywhere I can read more about this?

Thanks,
Eric

nevermind, I just looked at CNN. Quite a blow to the economy.

Ahh, NOW I know why Snap Names worked for me today!!

EDIT: Actually, I just thought about it and Pool.COM did get 'AuctionFind.COM' today which is now at auction. The power failure didn't happen till roughly 4:00 PM so their catching would have worked fine (regrettably!).

pool got loads of names today. it's just lucky that the grid went down when it did

 

[Steen]

It wouldnt matter.


They would have been able to get the lists to the registrars from somewhere out of NYC.

As long as the registrars equipment isnt effected and Pool has the info to give to the registrars, i do not believe it matters.

Oh, I hope POOL will continue to be down today, so that I can get my snapback easily today.

for me it is still down, hope it is up again soon (gonna miss my auction :-()

 

[diederik]

Yeah... still down..

This will make todays drop intresting. I do not know their model. I wonder when they send their lists to their partner registars? Most of my pools are entered quite a long time in advance, but you can add a pool up until drop time....

Interesting things afoot for today. :-D
