    Nitrogen Sports downtime/website issues
    Nitrogen Sports has confirmed to SBR that they are presently fighting off a distributed denial of service attack. The attacks have been ongoing. The shop was off-line for maintenance for a few hours two nights ago to try to better secure itself.

    Let us know if you have an issue with the shop today.

                  They are back up, but not sure if they're fully operational. The chat doesn't seem to be working and all of their college lines are extremely stale and appear to be stuck at where they were this morning before the DDoS attack. Haven't tried to place a bet and am assuming any placed on stale lines would be invalidated anyway.

                  To their credit, I was just able to transfer my available balance out, as usual.

                            They all get hit when they get big. Attackers figure they can pay the ransom.
