Yes, it's up. Autoprocessing is having some problems though. We've been experience some stoppages of it the Last week or so. It appears to be totally stopped now. The site works and the turns will process if all turns are uploaded, but they won't run due to hitting the time limits. Not sure when it will be fixed.

I can't say for sure, but it's very likely. Myself and others were able to connect to the website by directing our browsers dierctly to the ip address, but trying to go to seiv.pbw.cc would not work.

They took down all but 4 of the DNS root servers, and that means u cant type in a URL and have it find the link by looking it up on the DNS... yet if u know the IP address u can still visit the address just fine
