Hi everybody :)

I don't know why but the main page of gog.com is very laggy and not displayable to me
I see the website like with "no css" and strange text : "smallSpotLimit : 5 isRotatorActive = true" can someone know why ? Thanks :)

EDIT : It's done now I don't know why :)

There was a free game being given away. 30,000 copies gone in a matter of minutes, especially after being featured on Reddit.
So a ton of new people and bots hitting F5 and trying to get the game resulted in no main page for a lot of people as the servers couldn't keep up with the demand.
Hehe, self-initiated DDoS attack...
Thanks to you two :)

Yep. That's not a bug. It's a feature on GOG. :-)

I must say this is one of the few sites on the web that actually seems to cause its own DDoS attacks. The masochists.
