The CAVE - fucking - matsuri has hit. This has been the screen I've seen for the last hour. In typical Japanese style, its a waiting game.
You'd think that for one day - nay - for 8 hours they could run their goddam site off of something more than a celeron server running windows 95.

I labelled Persona 3 FES a "waiting sim" and thought the term was my invention. Oh well.

I guess this is your first online Matsuri.

Second.
Is CAVE not aware of the problem, or do they get a sadistic satisfaction knowing that people are sitting for hours clicking "refresh"?

Heh. Cave Matsuri. The scalper rush has begun.
Facebook died for a few hours a while ago. "Patching a critical issue" was the official response. Much laughing ensued on Twitter and blogs around the world.

I doubt they care for a few events a year.
For what it's worth, it takes about a third of the time now as it did for the first few.
