Bored script kiddies have time in the weekends when they are allowed screen time by their mommies. Then they create scripts to bombard our server and grind the thing to a halt. Gives us the opportunity to improve things like rate limiting etc every time, but also means some downtime…

It's not just you. Seems to be an intermittent issue. I'm gonna do other things for a few hours and let the all-knowing wizards work their magical repairs. :)
