Betjam contest crashes

[barryg]

Was just finishing my regional picks for Betjam contest when site went down.....not entire site, just for contest (with 15 minutes till deadline).
Wonderful......

[Dr. Jack]

did you try again? Coming up for me

[barryg]

Tried again...nothing
Don't know what the problem is on my end!!!!!
Oh well, missed the 12 p.m. deadline.....

[barryg]

Very strange, as soon as deadline passed, the page came up!!!!!!
Could it be that they closed the contest early (a few minutes before 12 p.m.) due to heavy response?

[Dr. Jack]

I doubt that but its conceivable that a lot of people waited until the last minute and maybe site had server issues.

[barryg]

That's what I get for waiting too long!!!!!!!!

Appreciate it, GK.
Before I go have my fourth beer, who's your Final Four?

[snapdad]

same thing happened to me barry. i had 3 of the 4 regions in and it crashed.

[barryg]

Exactly, Snap. I had submitted first three regions, trying to submit fourth and got nothing.
This was about 15 minutes before deadline...I'm guessing the contest site went down with too many people entering (although that should have been a problem).

Why wait til there is 15 minutes left?

Not like anything is gonna change

[barryg]

Why not wait?
Should I expect a problem or should I expect something to work properly?
