    I have also problems to connect giveawayoftheday.com, but I was able to connect game.giveawayoftheday.com for a short time. The Game Giveaway for today is Swap & Fall.

  5. Minor WordPress works which turned out to be a major database maintenance.Hello everyone,
    and sorry for the inconvenience caused by today’s GAOTD downtime.

    Today we started to do some minor works on our WordPress site engine and just a few minutes later we faced the whole database performance problem that bugged us and our visitors before from time to time. But now, this database problem was about to become full-scale disaster, so we decided to deal with that immediately, and we had to bring the site down for several hours.
    We are still working on database performance tuning and expect Giveawayoftheday.com to be in a perfect shape tomorrow, ready to meet our visitors.

    We will launch our daily giveaways at midnight (PST) and we hope that you’ll visit us tomorrow to check those out.
    Again, we are sorry for this unexpected downtime.

    Your Giveawayoftheday.com team

    Thanks for responding. It is reassuring to know I'm not the only one. I hope it is not a "major' problem for the GOTD team. They don't need another "headache", with what they already do. ( IMO )
