They aren't but most East Coast ISP's route traffic through Level3's network to that location, and don't have a backup set for whatever reason. That's why only some ISP's have issues.

But people in Europe was having issues that day too and I do not live in the east coast

Again, depends on the ISP and how they have their routes set up, and whether or not they have a failover link that detects when packets start getting dropped on a path. If it was a server or SE issue, NO ONE would be able to play. If anyone can log into the server, its not the server.
