Is Matchbook Down?

[FreeFall]

is it back up yet?

[williams22]

A lot of people have posted that they have gotten in now, but I still can't.

[FreeFall]

I assume they got a new ip or nameserver and we have to wait for it to propagate on our ISPs.

[Lucky Charm]

still down

[Bill Dozer]

They are up here as well and say they should be up for all soon. Seems like DoS attack season is ongoing but we'll see what more we can find out about their issue. It's worth a try clearing your browser cache.

Bad job by Matchbook today.

[FreeFall]

yeah went 4-1 tonight with dogs as big as +165 and +150 but couldnt get the bets in...

[Micturition Man]

Slight hijack, is there a thread discussing WSEX possibly going busto? I read this rumor elsewhere today and am wondering what the basis is.

It seems like a high volume online sportsbook should be about the hardest business in the world to run into the ground.

You can get to it by going to http://www2.matchbook.com You can also get there via this IP, but I'm not sure what the hostname is: http://204.188.169.5/

www.matchbook.com resolves to 204.188.169.6
www2.matchbook.com resolves to 204.188.169.11
I can't resolve 204.188.169.5 to a hostname.
FYI, all www(3-9).matchbook.com all resolve to 204.188.169.6 i.e. www.matchbook.com ip.

Good Luck

Funny, just received this mins ago:

Dear Client:

Matchbook will be available at www2.matchbook.com today as a temporary measure, as our primary www.matchbook.com address is currently offline in order to resolve a malicious DDoS (distributed denial of service) attack.

Should the attack shift to www2.matchbook.com, we will suspend all markets and flush all open offers. We thank you once again for your understanding.

Regards,
Matchbook Client Services
