Anyone else tried and couldn't connect?

Combination of 3rd world Internet and the entire country trying to access the same website at the same time was never going to work.

How did they not see that clusterfk coming?

Hackers are being blamed ..... yeah right!

IBM pocket millions for setting up the system that, surprise, surprise doesn't work.

As I heard on the radio earlier, if people can't buy concert tickets online because systems crash, what hope have 5m+ people got for all getting to the same website at the same time?!

Apparently a Denial of Service attack from "overseas".

Although as a news article I read earlier pointed out the majority of households trying to access the site at the same time would look awfully like a DOS attack so the "overseas" comments are being questioned.
