TopCoder is down
By ltaravilse, 10 years ago, In English

Does anyone remember TopCoder being down for so long? I think it's the first time since I compete in TopCoder that something like this happens. It's been down since a few minutes after yesterday's SRM.

Probably they have been playing with their database.

    But why do it during/after an SRM? Rather, how'd they find the time to mess up the database, if there's something more important (SRM) going on? This doesn't make sense in the least...

    I can't even find out my result...

    By the way, have anyone tried to register for TCO? It doesn't react at all when I click "Sign Up" button...

      This is like when Facebook is down and people complains in Twitter, and when Twitter is down people complains in Facebook...

      When TopCoder is down people complains in CodeForces and when CodeForces is down people complains in TopCoder!
