I can bill you guys? Cool!
I wish I'd known about this sooner
As for the site outages, we're on a shared server that's getting crowded. Not a lot I can do about it. This is one of the things you have to put up with when you go for the low bidder.
The company I contract with has fixed some problems, and do seem to be getting better. I've never used a host that didn't have some problems, and the next comparable bid was like double the price (with no promise that they'd be any better).
I do apologize, both for previous problems and any future ones. Perhaps one of these days we'll be so big and popular we can run on a dedicated server. Of course, by that time I'll be insane from posting the hundred Challenge entries per day
