Unabomber-
1) could be attacks.
2) could be storm related effects on the internet (a lot of bandwidth goes through miami)
3) could just be beginning of season problems.
The number of players (and required phone and internet bandwidth) really jumps. Books that attracted more players than their systems can handle often get overwhelmed until they can upgrade servers, add phone lines and add clerks.
It's like snow and sex: You never know how much you will get or how long it will last.
This means software and server problems. If you cannot get into a site between 1230-1pm it's because everyone is trying to submit bets at the same time. This is not a DOS issue. SB's just need to upgrade equipment or software.
We are piped in from Miami and bandwidth is smooth.
Carib is stating on their website that a DOS attack today shut them down and appologizes for any inconvenience. Guess more than a few were Dos attacked today. Scary for next Sunday to say the least! IMO I still say its the FEDS on this side doing this attack to try to inconvient these books since there is nothing they can do legally!
