Critical mass exceeded (why the site was down)

Well, that was an intense 24 hours. First of all we would just like to thank you all for breaking our website by storming through the doors like very excitable cattle.

Traffic peaked yesterday when we got on the front page of Slashdot and too many people tried to squeeze down our internet pipe all at once, and as such our server attempted to explode (or at least hummed louder).

Since you are reading this though we have fixed the problem and we are hopefully having a wider door fitted to accommodate a few more of you.

Please stay tuned for more of the best news, reviews and features that our editorial team can have beaten out of them by the editors all in the name of your entertainment.
