It may not even be the servers themselves getting DDoS'd this time. The people in my FC who got booted are east coast/central. I'm in the northwest, and havent had connection issues yet.

Also, blaming the servers doesn't help your cause. even google and amazon can suffer from DDoS attacks. And they have much more money thrown into their servers. Considering the servers have been mostly stable other than during the periods of attack, I'd say they are just fine. The weekend had no issues, and that would have been "the prime time holiday hours"
