Single post in Welcome to the Recode!

We anticipated a rush of people... But we didn't anticipate such a rush that the server's error literally said "gone away". The server just got up and walked away like "nope! Ain't valentines day yet, I ain't ready for this. I'm the only employee here - I'm not paid enough for this!" Joking aside... In seriousness, this was somewhat expected. It's very difficult to stress test the server with only 20 people testing things, right? At this stage... This is actually a good thing. We'd rather fix the issue outright so the site works properly from the beginning, rather than slowly make it better and better by providing metaphorical band-aids. Just hang with us - we'll have this fixed post-haste! We just called our webhost provider and they're working with us to resolve this issue assap :)
