Fame Game battles Mumbai and China

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

What we thought was a cut and dry case of sleeping in turned out to be an epic battle of hacking with Mumbai and China. This morning we found that our server had been the target of an international squadron of hackers. (maybe only one hacker using multiple computers in different nations) It was a serious battle of wits and boring computer commands.

None the less, Fame Game is back up and rocking. Check out the latest events on the homepage if your so inclined or rock out on the 6 degrees of Paris Hilton.

Fame Game Overslept…

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

Hey folks,

In our efforts to grow the system, we flew a little too close to the sun. Fame Game was down for a few hours this morning, but we’ve gotten it back up and running.

UPDATE: To clarify, we ran out of server space because we were too cautious about our backups (note to new startups: you probably dont need to keep a copy of the database for everyday going back six months).
