Some players still can't connect

[Susume]

After today's server down time, some players in vet chat still cannot connect to the game server or the website. They restart their clients and get Couldnt connect to server` error. They try to access the website from various browsers and can't get a web page. In some cases they get "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." This is while the rest of us are seeing our scores update on the website.

These players are missing out on the last two hours of 890b.

Both players affected report that ping works fine.

Both players are connected now - they had a hard-coded IP address in their hosts file (left over from some past time when the IP address changed and DNS was not propagating) and it was overriding the DNS. Removing it solved the problem. Closing feedback.
