It's because of the amount of traffic to the sites that you frequent. I experience the same thing. The more hits that a site has, the less availability it has for others to join. Think of it as purchasing a ticket to an event that's sold out.

Yep it's not just you.

There's only enough room for so many people at a time on a server and Smoaky's server gets hammered on Friday nights with so many people trying to get on at once.

This didn't used to happen though. For the site to become so consistently unusable now on game nights is disappointing. It's sacrilege really. Like if you went to church on Sunday morning and all the windows and doors were boarded up. whome.gif The one time all week this place should absolutely work is on Friday night.

When you think about it, it is a WONDERFUL problem to have...when so many people are trying to get on a site at once it means there is some quality stuff being offered. Launching Smoaky.com has proven to be an incredibly successful decision.
