I think the servers ran out of STEAM.

(Sorry, couldn't help it...)

Did we just kill CD as well?

Funny that I never remember TIMS crashing, and it was always quite fast. Interested to see how 2nd district event signup goes if the website struggles like this.

Yep. We are unable to register

*Poof* no cheese either.

Well, so now we see how the "New and Improved" registration system is working out. TIMS registration had gone pretty well for the last few years.

Wonder if this is a harbinger of things to come with the "New and Improved" FRC dual Championships?


PS: The most frustrating part of this issue is that I now need to spend the next who-knows-how-long of my life sitting here trying to reload this page every few minutes in order to register our team. My life is now temporarily "on hold" until FIRST either announces that registration is postponed until another day, or the site starts working again. Sigh.

It came back up for a second, then went down again.

I called FIRST, and someone actually answered. They said they are working on the issue and hope to have it resolved soon. I asked if I needed to stay glued to a computer, or if they would re-launch at a future date and time. The representative I spoke with said she didn't have any information about that.

They really just need to call it off and do a re-launch, with it working.

Yup, it's broken
