Mp3s are too big to upload anyway.

Apparently the server load is so great at the moment that it is too busy to serve even us Plus-ers.

It was busy just now.

8:00 PM PDT on a holiday evening (U.S. holiday only ). I still can't see it being busy like that.

So what exactly is the problem?

Is it the result of tinkering (too much time on your hands-itis) or the server?

In an odd coincidence, both the American and Greek halves of the server decided it was time to screw the servin' and party.

Why is the Server Always Busy?!


To finally answer the question:
"Because there are always about 100 people at least visiting the website and the server must serve them. That's why it's called a 'server'!"

And poly can introduce expansion packs every few months, with added features that should have been in the original. Its the civ way.
