1ish it was busy and slow for 10 minutes or so.

Yep yep. Maybe there is something bogging down the server besides the game?

Posted it on the FB page, but the site was down, completely as in I got database error, for about 5 minutes.

Okay, I'm going to go ahead and close this now. Thanks for all the reports; further reports aren't going to help at this point, and I've just got a lot of work to do. The quick attempts I was hoping would work didn't help, so I've rolled back some (the "site busy" errors are important; they keep things from getting worse) and made some conservative adjustments to reduce the impact of a couple issues. I don't expect things to get better right now, only that they won't get worse.

I'm going to get some help from the server owners to see what solutions we can come up with.

Until then, hang in there, Trisphites.
