Sure, there was a sticky up for days. Check /v/announcements. I haven't had a lot of luck with the search function, sorry. I'll try to find it but it's harder on my phone.

Thanks so much for that.

Has there been any word on who it might be?

The guys running the show here have been nothing less than heroic. I can't IMAGINE what's coming at them, out of left field on a world stage, but their Alexa ratings IN NINE DAYS went from 12,588 world ranking to 8704 today - they moved up 3884 places! In the US they went from 1475 to 1164 - up 311 places.

So it's two guys, handling this massive influx, while under DDoS, building the site, which is still in alpha, and still showing up to talk and explain things to us. I think they're doing a helluva job.

Somebody showed up talking smack saying he was the guy and he was only sending 60 requests a minute and what a pussy Atko and his system was but Atko showed up with some big numbers and I don't know what happened after that because it was irrelevant. Frankly, it could be a lot of people. Papers came out that reddit was forming an alliance with Stratfor and maybe they don't like losing that audience. It seems to be pretty major and sustained - since Sunday now.
