Re: Flash Brackets

Re: Congratulations SimpsonBrothers for the DSS #67 (Glass) Winning Photo!
This was the highest vote total in any challenge since #62. Most of them have been in the 2-3 per voter range. This round was more than double the previous high.

Re: Down again?
The numbers in the link look to agree with other sites assessments of acceptable website uptime - 99.8% for large company business critical sites, including maintenance downtime (yes they are selling monitoring services, but seem to be realistic in telling their customers what they can expect).
