bittenbybooks.com is down...
« on: November 16, 2012, 02:31:59 AM »
I think Harry might have shown up for the Q&A...

http://www.bittenbybooks.com/ has been delivering errors for the last 30+ minutes and it finally choked to a 500 error that hasn't changed in the last 10 minutes...

Yeah, it looks like their server was not up to the impact of an appearance by Himself.

We should've warned 'em about that...  Not to many things are up to handling The Jim.  We broke MarsCon 2011, we had the cops checking occupancy at the Barnes & Noble in Tyson's Corner, and now we've done blow'd up their website.

It's official.  Jim's fans ROCK.

Fortunately, this should pose no problem for Tuesday's Reddit event.  Even an AMA with Obama couldn't bring them down for long!

Obama, Jim, Obama, Jim...  Hmmm...  Yeah, still not convinced that was a big enough test run...   ;D

Update:  from the website

We apologize, our host cannot handle all of the awesome Dresden and Jim Butcher fans. So we are sadly going to have to cancel the event for tonight. BUT Jim has graciously agreed to come to the site with more books after his tour. By that time we will have a new host and MORE bandwidth! Thank you all so much for your patience and understanding.
