    what do you think? bol is just shutting down in the middle of football season when one of their major competitors just closed to the us?

    and their brilliant scheme was to pay everyone right until the end, and keep posting updates and emailing people?

    why in the world would someone email all their customers with updates if they were leaving

    High probability considering they've already postponed their paid NFL contests for this week. BUT, it could still be up in time for the NFL even so.

    I don't understand why BOL didn't have a backup of their site on another server. They could have forwarded all traffic to that site while they sorted out the bad one.

    It's possible that if they were attacked, then the subsequent forwarded site would be attacked as well. Both would be down anyway? Again, I'm no computer genius here and never claimed to be so.......

    I would be surprised if a site that large didn't have some sort of failover. But that does no good in the event of a DDoS.

    I'm guessing they will be back up Monday or Tuesday. They are losing millions every day they are down.

    I don't know how much they make on a daily basis but I'd guess it to be between 1-2 million. They are worldwide and do a lot of volume. I bet they have over 1 million active accounts.
    BTW these are just educated guesses. I could be way off.

    Another reason why people will bet locally when their state makes it legal. The lines won't be as good but you will have 100% security and a peace of mind.

    Making it a whole thursday-friday and weekend without fixing the problem. Amateur hour (or weekend in this case.) IMO unacceptable for a book of their perceived stature and grade.
    If/when they fix should give all players a bankroll boost

    Some people still don't understand the situation. It's a ransomware attack. They either pay off the hackers, or they don't. If they don't, then they have to rebuild everything from backup data. Who knows if BOL backs up their data properly and if so, how long it will take to rebuild everything. STATS Perform -- a giant international data provider -- has been down for 9 days due a ransomware attack.

    I'm hoping for the best here, but there is some chance this outage persists for a long time and/or there is some loss of data.
