A quick update on the recent server issues -- we're coming a lot closer to identifying the culprit of our problems (for the techies: looks like it's a spam-driven DDoS), and we're working with our admins to hopefully fix it for good. The upgrade we made alleviated the symptoms, making it much easier to deal with downtime when it happens, but it didn't address the root cause.

Until we get this fixed, you may experience times where TC is very slow, or doesn't even load, but since our memory upgrade, we're able to nurse our patient back from the brink much more quickly, so it's generally up again within a few minutes. Hopefully we'll be able to get a more effective cure soon -- in the meantime, thanks so very much for your patience! It's driving us batty -- I'm sure it's driving you all batty, too!
