...you weren't alone. In fact, dom and I couldn't get on for most of the day either - though Midnite had no problem at all. Apparently, whatever was going on only affected certain parts of the country. But the problem appears to be fixed now. [ghost_smiley]

The first time I tried, it went kabonkers; but when I refreshed, it was fine.

No problem here at all. How odd.
-
I couldn't get on this morning and early afternoon. Things are obviously fine right now - but it's weird that it's only certain parts of the country that seem to have the intermittent problem...
-
Almost immediately after I posted that, I could no longer access the forum. How weird. [ghost_angry]
-
Really weird because I've had no problems today since I've gotten on. Because you had no problem at all yesterday, I thought perhaps you were immune to whatever happens. But I guess not...
-
Maybe it's because I'm using a phone? Just speculation. Hopefully, it was just a freaky incident. [ghost_undecided]

I play PCH (the Publishers' Clearinghouse Sweepstakes) every day on-line. It's free, it's fun (although you have to put up with a lotta ads), and - eh - somebody's gotta win (I've already won over $300 plus gift cards). Anyway, a couple weeks ago, the site had the same problems. For certain people in certain parts of the nation for certain games, it would go into error. It was all a mish-mash mess. I called PCH and the woman told me they couldn't figure out what was wrong but were working on it. She said the strangest thing was how, like I said, it wasn't the same across the country. They didn't know if it was with their site, software or server. It went on for several days. Finally, PCH completely reset its website and then sent e-mails telling everyone to clear their cache of PCH's cookies and log-in again (it also sent a link that would automatically do it). Voila! It ended. They explained they never totally figured out what went wrong, thinking it was a combination of site, software and server that somehow glitched. But it mysteriously ended the way it mysteriously began.

I wasn't able to get to the forum this morning but everything seems fine now.
-
Today I had no problem - but before I went to bed last night I was going to make one last look but I couldn't get through.
This whole situation is just very odd. [ghost_blink]
-
Well, I was in enforced exile from about 4:00PM until 6:10PM...
-
I have been in the local Barnes & Noble all afternoon. No problem from here.
-
Maybe things are looking up. I was just in another enforced exile - but only for about 15 minutes. Each exile seems to get shorter and shorter...
-
No problem for me at all today. So far at least.
-
Well, apparently I spoke much too soon because I was just blocked from getting through for over 7 hours...
-
Ditto!
-
i've been unable to access the page on and off for several days. all day yesterday in fact.
-
Normally when these things happen, everyone experiences the exact same period of time when they can't get through to a site. But this situation where some people have absolutely no problems getting through, while others experience completely different periods and lengths of time when they can't get through is just too bizarre! I've never experienced anything like it in the over 20 years I've been on the Internet.
-
I got locked out around 10:30 last night. I don't know exactly how long but everything was okay when I got up this morning.
-
And I was locked out last night from about 6:30PM until about 1:45AM.
-
Curiouser and curiouser. [ghost_wacko]
-
Forced exile...
For MB??
Don't these jokers know he's important, and, yet has the air of 'Mystery'?

I probably shouldn't say anything because like before I might jinx things. But it looks like whatever was going on last week has been corrected because for the past four days I haven't had any problems getting through. [whew]
-
Same here, MB!
