are the servers down?

help i need to spend money! lol

Haha Hopefully the AWS issue didn’t keep you from Gameflip too long :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Just to give people an update with what happened over the weekend. The AWS servers (which we host on as well) were temporarily down yesterday, but have since been back up and running. Here’s an article from Venture Beat for more information about the outage: http://venturebeat.com/2015/09/20/amazons-aws-outage-takes-down-netflix-reddit-medium-and-more/

This is also my favorite gif that was attached to this news!
