Second Regional and Championship Registration

[Manoel]

Hey all,

We somehow managed to register to the Championship using TIMS at 11:55 AM (don't know how) and, after we did, I couldn't see the "Add an event" button to register for our second regional.
The TIMS is now giving me an error when I try to access the team page. Not that it really matter, considering the hard spot (Atlanta) is already secured, and our second regional (Brazilian) will certainly have a spot for us anyway, but just wondering how's it working for the other teams.

Regards,

Appears to have crashed

Yeah, I definately can't get in either. Grrrr, the person who registered for regional 1 got in and out and over with...

[mrs. p]

us too. i can log on but once i click on add event, it crashes. sent the requested email, guess we just keep trying and/or wait and see.

good luck to all teams (in the competition and the registration process)

And its down..... well at least the first regional registration went better this year

I was in TIMS at 11:45 and just kept playing to keep it refreshed. Got booted at 12:01, got back in got some awesome errors of too many entries in the database, kept logging out and back in, and finally got this:
"This service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later. (my)"

I got back to the login page and now its telling me Im already logged in.

Oh well... I guess its time to go to lunch and hope that we can still get in!

On a side note (im electrical, not great with databases) are there web based databases that can easily handle 1000 simultaneous users?

I just got into the Add Event page and the first event (UTC) I had registered for was deleted as well as not letting me add another.

Yeah it did that to me too... I think what is happening is the database is overloading... and I dont think it actually erased any data... but its definitely hiccuping all over the place.

Time to take a lunch break... come back later! No use in hammering it anymore.

Yeah, I'm not even getting an add event button. Though I did get something other than a "service not available" page a minute ago

Brandon.... Kick the server again

There's nothing better than putting all of the day's plans on hold while waiting for the FIRST registration system to work.

[Stillen]

This service is temporarily unavailable. We are aware and are working on it. Please try again later. (my)

Got a new one:

"We apologize, but TIMS is briefly down for maintenance. Please check back in a little while. "

Somebody want to register for me? I've got a gymnastics meet to go to after work.

I clicked on "agree to terms" ........ crash. I think I killed the server.
