We won't open the floodgates in the classical sense for a while, as the invite system is responsible for keeping us online even if somewhat sluggish. Currently we are focused on fixing the hosting situation as well as working out a plan to scale better in the future. We hope to have most of the issues resolved by middle of next week as we were caught off guard over the weekend because some of us were out of town and only on their phones!
I believe its about 3,000+ and about 15,000 invite requests awaiting since we cannot send them out at this point due to traffic constrains.
AMA request drunkenninja?
And still growing!
That's really amazing... thanks for the insight!
Any timeframe on when the floodgates will be opened? Sometime after the new servers are brought online?

Quite frankly, I hope you never open the floodgates, but that's me.
You guys must be in a tizzy with all this new traffic. Good luck with the hosting! You guys have a great site here.
Not for the foreseeable future, the system has been nothing but a positive experience for the community.
Thank you, it's definitely been an interesting 2 days!
Excellent! Now I can sleep at night.
Twenty-five percent growth in a week is pretty impressive. Nice job keeping the site running during all this fuss!
