I don't buy the DDoS attacks reason.
Why would DDoS attacks sometimes take down their website and other times not? Why are some 3rd party skins able to get on and play limited tables/games, but most skins can't?
I was able to log on using some skins and join games while getting the configuring endlessly stuff on ACR. I was also able to sit at a mtt table, when it first happen, while on a 3rd party skin while everyone else was sitting out and play with relatively no issues and just steal blinds for over a 20 minutes until they shut down due to DDoS attacks.
Bits and pieces are coming back and for longer periods because they are narrowing down where the problem is. Their upgrade affected something proprietary to WPN and did not really have any impact on the WTN skins, until the site shutdown due to 'DDoS attacks'. It may have prevented them from going back to a prior date and prevented their servers from freeing up its memory/cache which brought on lagging until it froze up.
