[QUOTE="Saracenus, post: 5370401, member: 47839"] Really this is two questions: 1) How stable has the WotC D&D site been for you. 2) How stable has your internet connection been in general. Question 2 is going have variance based upon service used, location, etc. For me personally, my up time on Comcast has been good in my area. My problems have generally been fixed rapidly (except the two times squirrels chewed through my cable line to the house, that took a couple of days each time). Question 1 is easy to answer, for the most part the WotC website has been up and running. A few times I have run into problems but not very often. Does Question 1 predict what will happen with the DDI cloud, maybe. Let's face it, putting CB on line is going to increase the load on WotC's servers. Will they handle it (did the devs allocate enough server resources for the demand?)? Remains to be seen. Will the system they have been testing privately hold up to the initial public surge on Nov. 16th... we will see. If WotC has messed up this last part, I am sure they will take measures to fix it, because if people cannot access the tools they have paid for, they will be uproar. I would pity the poor CustServ agents that day. In all likelihood, the system will work and there will not be a problem. I am not promising it, but considering they have managed to keep their website running most of the time, I am reasonably confident they can handle the DDI Cloud. [/QUOTE]
