Of course, I am really starting to get frustrated with this book. It seems to go down a lot now. Not sure what the deal is, but probably will be looking for another book next week.

IndianaMike · Oct 25, 2003

IndianaMike · Oct 25, 2003

Kris1 · Oct 25, 2003

What the hell is the deal. The best games of the day are coming on in 30 minutes and Bodog has been down for 2 hrs. My god what takes so long to get it back up and running. Looks like after today they will lose a few customers.

Kris1 · Oct 25, 2003

IndianaMike · Oct 25, 2003

Kris1 · Oct 25, 2003

You have got to be kidding, almost 4 hrs in downtime, anybody no if the site will be back up today or next week?

ChadC · Oct 25, 2003

Wasn't here earlier, how long has bodog been down now? I can get to their site but I can't log-in so I still count it as being down.

From the always reliable 911..

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR>10.20.03 (1:39 pm EST) - BoDog never had any technical problems this weekend. They were the subject of the largest DDoS (distributed denial of service) and most sustained (three days) attack their Network backbone providers have ever seen. Once again they successfully fought it off and most of their players got their plays in before games went off. While others in the industry have chosen to pay the attackers to make them go away (for a while) BoDog thinks using this as an opportunity to strengthen their defences against these attacks is a better long term investment. It is 911s personal opinion that it is bad for the industry as a whole to ever pay these guys, this will never stop by paying. The ransom notes themselves even mention that this person is only going to stop for 12 months so any book that pays now has a revenue
sharing partner. Plus as news of getting paid starts to leak out there is nothing stopping others from trying the same thing. The only solution is for no one to pay.
