Performance problems and server migration

Hello everyone,
Our software is in the process of migration, we are changing servers to combat performance problems that hit us during the last few days. Our game server may be down today, as we need to move the Game Giveaway to a new hardware. Giveaway itself will be live during same migration process, though some slowdowns should be expected.

We are sorry for the inconvenience but current servers` performance left us no choice but go with the migration ASAP.

Update: It looks like some of the user comments might be lost due to the migration process.

Yours,
Slava and the GAOTD team

  6. I wonder if that’s what’s wrong with the game page right now? I hope that’s all it is. :) If so, good luck with it, hurry, :), & I’ll try to wait patiently. :) I agree with the above- every day is Xmas due to the games giveaway page! :) We appreciate you all a LOT! :) :)

  12. Thanks GGAOTD, you guys are great, and your website is SO appreciated.

    But, why are the postings in here changing dates? Last I knew, it was the 13th of December… how come some people have posted up through December 20th? Did I sleep through a week or something?

  14. Hello.
    I was chided the other day for putting a problem before the group concerning a giveaway’s odd behaviour. I know those items should go to your forum but I wanted to be sure that I could reach the other participants. I have not been able to figure out your forum or its usage and I don’t know how many people actually use it. I know I can’t.
    Sorry (Bubby?) if I messed up your protocols.

  15. Yesterday’s FLV download tool was a disaster. 24 hours later I am
    still trying to register it.

    Diplodock has taken the registration server off line to limit the
    number of registrations. I was able to download a trial version and
    access their purchase page without problems, of course … no problems
    there!

    I deleted the trial version when I realised that identical tools are
    available as add-ons for Firefox free of charge, but I’ll keep trying
    to register the other one just to see if they keep the registration
    server off-line until the end of the free registration period.
