<p>I hope it doesn’t do this tomorrow…</p>

<p>Good luck to all!</p>

<p>I think it crashed because JHU decisions came out and there were like fifteen posts per minute- it definitely got a little crazy</p>

3

<p>Yeah…it might happen today too…:D</p>

4

<p>im guessing it will…it happened during ED time</p>

5

<p>Whatever will we do!? ;)</p>

6

<p>how about a chatroom?</p>

7

<p>It’s practically a certainty that it’s going to happen today. I mean, all the Really Competitive Decisions on the same day. Cripes. </p>

<p>(I personally intend not to stay awake, thereby beating server overloads on decision sites and CC. It actually worries me that I’m this un-worried, but eh.)</p>

8

<p>yeah yesterday was terrible! it was midnight and still didn’t work!</p>

9

<p>I don’t know what we’re going to do if it crashes! AHHHHHHHH.</p>

10

<p>I agree with spacepirate – we should set up a chatroom of some sort. I’m not personally sure how to do that, but does anyone else want to help out?</p>

11

<p>Yeah, I think that’s a good idea. Maybe on AIM? You can have a “private chat” sort of thing going on.</p>

12

<p>I tried to set up a chat called “PrincetonRD” on AIM… does anyone want to try joining to see if it works? My screenname is ethan0ic, if that makes a difference.</p>

13

<p>My bet is that the system will go down and will come back only momentarily. Just a feeling. Already, today, I had problems. So, just imagine at 5pm.</p>

<p>That is a chatroom for backup! Save that URL and get in if CC crashes (it is bound to crash though)</p>

15

<p>thanks, spacepirate! :)</p>

16

<p>Actually it has been down several times (I couldn’t log in). I hope it would be fine at you-know-when.</p>

17

<p>anytime :cool:</p>

18

<p>Do you need to create an account for that parachat thing? Because I think more people would have AIM.</p>

19

<p>Who cares about CC being down??? The Princeton decisions site is down and has been the whole day…I really hope it’ll be back up in time.</p>

<p>If they purposefully disabled it to discourage 20,000 people constantly refreshing…smart move on their part.</p>

<p>No, you just write your name (or, in this case, CC username) in the box and click “connect.” It’s actually really easy.</p>
