ChessBomb servers exploded

ChessBomb.com's servers were bombed yesterday during M-Tel Masters round 7. Lots of terrorists users attacked visited us simultaneously, several times more than we had prepared for. The enemy browsers were aided by a bug from one of our programmers, which caused a component of our XMPP service to eat all the RAM.

The guilty programmer will be punished with a 10-day vacation on the Black Sea coast. Meanwhile the issue is fixed, and we invite everybody to hit us again even harder =)
