As much as I bitch and complain about the site here, they've never failed to make things right after an outage.  It's hardly the first time this has happened.  As for why the other Bitcoin poker sites don't have this happen, most of them have maybe 5 people on them at any given time.

I just praise the good lord that this didn't happen yesterday on the holiest of holy days. We shall overcome my .....

Fill Your Barrel with Bitcoins!
I've been playing on Seals since May 2013 and have only experienced down time like this 2-3 times. They are always back online quickly and have never failed to compensate me for BTC lost from outages. I have full confidence in SWC, ST6 and Mr. Chairman.

Hello Loyal players.

1)  DDoS continues, mitigation efforts continue.  This one was professional and we are fighting it still.

2)  It is important to understand there is no easy fix here, or it would have been applied.  I feel the anger when we are down.  We are in a building phase where we must improve connectivity and are actively working towards it.  It is a sophisticated attack and we will improve our system to defend against it.   It may take time and I know that sucks.

Will continue updates throughout the day.

Update please.  I've wasted all day waiting for your site to show signs of life.

Follow them over on Twitter @sealswithclubs.  He's been pretty good throughout the day giving us updates on what's going on. 

Summary:
They are still working on it.  DDoS attacks can kill a site for days if they are well coordinated.  Micon hopeful site up by the end of the day.

So many gambling junkies here...  Grin

Just making me rethink where to keep my bankroll.  Online poker is a leisure sport, and I should be able to access it whenever I can.  It's been down for over 12 hours, and has been malfunctioning for days.  I don't care about the technical aspect, or even completely understand what a DDos is.  All I know is that the other sites don't disappear for this length of time and I cannot access any of my own coin/money/bankroll, however you want to spin it.  There was no updates for hours, and for a "home-grown" type site, I don't know if I fully trust them being protected from this in the future. 

DDoS gave League of Legends fits for a week or so 2-3 years ago... was unplayable - and thats a 32m player base.




Also, whats wrong with showing my support for Seals? Jeez.

As a member of Seals since the beginning (yes, I remember 5 people in 50 chip WTA freerolls and playing freemoney HU4ROLLZ), I have seen Seals go offline before.  And Seals always comes back ASAP, just as good as ever.  I wish ST6 the best of luck in fending off the DDoS.  As a note to those of you who are panicking/demanding withdrawals: IMO money on Seals is perfectly safe.  Personally, I have >1 BTC on my account and havent lost any sleep over the fact that Seals has been having issues in the past few days.

Just my 0.02 BTC

Who axed you? All joking aside wish would trot out the new software . Would the new software be less prone to the dds attacks? I am sure new software would be less laggy more people more lag I have found as a previous user of mavens and briggs.

Can you just process my account withdrawal?  Should be around .4 btc.  I can post account and address

that is not possible.  Unfortunately the entire system is paused until it is back.

What is the eta Micon?  Myself and I'm sure many others use your site as a form of income and have a majority of our money with you.  I need to know how to prepare in real life if this is going to be an ongoing issue.  I hope you can understand the concern.

For realz. I have almost 1 coin on the site and this is all the money I have in the world.  I will be sleeping in a van by the river if this is immediately not fixed. going to be tough to get wifi by the river .

I need an update please.

We are actively fighting a DDoS.  There is no timetable.  We will fight it until we beat it.  No ransom note this time.  

ST6 fully mobilized and Dr. Huh was called in as well.

we will process refunds when the site comes back up.  Coins are safe, I will update as needed.
