Sorry about the downtime

Hey Folks:

Beat The GMAT was down for about 20 minutes this morning. My apologies, I'm investigating to figure out what happened.

For those of you who couldn't access the site during that time, thanks for being patient!

Wow crap, we were down for several hours this morning. Sorry guys about this major inconvenience! surfd00d performed a clean up job on our database.

That's two crashes within a few days now. We're investigating to figure out what the root cause is. In the mean time, if you see any more issues, can you please msg me (if you can), send an e-mail to [email protected], or DM me on the beatthegmat twitter account?

Thanks guys for being patient. :(

I send you mail to other email address.
Are these email ids & other notifications integrated?

Which one I should use for instance response?

surfd00d has figured out the root cause of our server downtime. We've patched the problem successfully, so BTG should be pretty stable here on out. :)
