Black Tuesday 2013

Whew, thankfully this all got worked out beforehand with the Stress Tests. Bruery must be using Nexternal!

 

I think it may be more than an issue with the shopping cart. The site itself seems to have issues loading.

Update-- no orders have gone through. Some will need to give up (for the next hour or so) for some orders to go through. We have plenty!

Help me Obi Won Kenobii...you're my only hope.

 

I"m in the same boat with you. I can't access the shopping cart now. It's a lost cause at this point.

 

It's 1 item, quantity 3

 

They just posted on Twitter that no orders have gone through. How do you take that big of a step BACKWARDS from last year?

Well thats good news.

 

Okay, everyone stop for 2 minutes, then we will see

 

I'd put a guess out that at 2:00:01-05 this could fix itself. With that many carts resetting and (presumably) less users beating on their servers, it might just work. If you really want bottles, it's probably worth a shot then.

 

Anyone stop to consider these are just social experiments to see what we will be reduced to in the pursuit of beer??

 

Being that they have NEVER once been able to handle the BT load...yeah.

I'm sure we'll get a nicely worded apology from Patrick again this year, but this is seriously pathetic. For it to happen once is excusable. For it to continually occur, even in the face of the 'stress tests', is incredibly unprofessional.

 

yeah, everyone stop for a couple minutes so William and I can buy our bottles!

 

Give up? What do they think this is, high-school?
