This is already insane. Max users so far was 3,563 users online. That is triple what we had yesterday. This is amazingly good. Hopefully some of them will become members.

Any idea WHY?

Has the site been dug?.... It's a bit slow again... I hope it is just teething troubles with the new server because if this is the speed it runs at 4k viewers then it's exactly the same as the last server.

 agreed.

 We had ~1500 earlier and also yesterday. Unless VGChartz got dugg, I'm going with DDOS attack, since they seem to happen every once in a while (especially near release times), and there really is no other reason for users online to double instantly.

It might have something to do with me adding Snakeball to the game database. People are going nuts for it.

Bah! the connection keeps timing out.... My internet in general is slow today, but VGC for the past day or two has been faster than most other websites, now it is slower.

I just checked digg.com, and were right on the top of the main page

I have to try to post every comment/quete i make like 5 times before it goes through.

Have we somehow enraged Nintendodian's, Sonylander's or Xboster's or is Npd or someother organization behind this ?

It's incredible high but why?
