Excessive and repeated requests

The site came under excessive load yesterday for a few hours pushing data at almost 6mb/s at peak.

Why isn't clear but some threads had many repeated access attempts meaning some view counts are now widely out I have to report.

It stopped almost as fast as it started but the issue lasted several hours.

Carl,

Your site is now officially endorsed by the ECF.

The Junior pages reference John Higgs's thread on the Glorney Cup: http://englishchess.org.uk/Juniors/glor ... rts-today/

It isn't widely known but a lot of these chess websites are also me on a technical level.

As Maurice Micklewhite never said: "Not many people know that!"
