As always, we thank you for your support and consideration.

At approximately 2:35 pm PT, different areas around the country started experiencing network connectivity issues to our site. The problems continue around 5:30 pm PT and behavior could include not being able to reach our site at all to intermittent booting and disconnects.

This was due to a major network outage with one or more network units where connections pass through to get to sites in our area where SafeHarborGames.net is hosted. There were hundreds of site affect during the time period, but because it was only certain boxes affected, some people were totally affect while many others had no issues at all.

To emphasize to Everyone -

• There WAS NO HACK,
• Our servers did not fail,
• Our software was not compromised,
• The players didn't cause this,
• There was nothing any of us could do until the problem was fixed by the ISP.

The best comparison is that network connections are like traveling on various highways to get to your destination. In this case, one of the major intersections was down. If you were coming from a different direction, you would not see anything wrong, but the ones that have to go through that point on the highway(internet), were impacted.

As always, we thank you for your support and consideration.
