    Our Servers spam a number of DataCentres and locations across South Africa
    The iGame Core Active servers are hosted out of MTN Data Centre at this time before being moved back to our Gallo Manor DC after maintenance
    The pwer outage wreaked havok, not only on available services but on routing across the country
    A great many systems and services are still recovering from the effects

    @ Tin man
    Wow, never knew that.
    @xero, all
    Shot, its bigger than I(most of us?) thought. Nice to have someone in the loop of knowledge.

    At least I have WAGE. Also, I think quickshare was down too.
    I hope the person responsible for the neglect of backup generators, and backup backup generetors or maintenance feels the wrath of the angry mobs(not mtn, they cool).

    So is there a chance that Mygaming and MyBB will be giving away free stuff to all their users? - you know in line with what Sony and S2 did after their respective downtimes

    Don't think I have a sig, thought I did though. How do I make it quoted like that? I've seen more epic ones around though

    James, I wanted to go with INFEST but I thought that someone might quote me later on
    In regards to the issue, this happens form time to time, we normally see a quicker recovery, although this time was on a larger scale than normal

    Actually ... the datacenters had - by the time they went down - been running on backup generators for about 3 hours already - this is according to a notice we got from Hetzner. So you can blame Eskom.

    Verizon's in there as well. It's always a huge issue when that data center goes down
