I think he was trying to give everyone a chance. Even those who work during the week, or those overseas who have to get up at odd hours for the launch. At least launching on a Saturday it's Sunday in Oz, still time to recover a bit before the work week begins.
I work in IT QA. Shit happens. No matter how well you test when you go live all bets are off and anything can happen. And i know how awful one feels when you have to tell your customers they'll have to wait again.
Chin up Brad. Eventually all the glitches will just be a memory.
Peace,
KJ
It is Sunday in Oz, albeit 5am (now 5:30), all rugged up coz its fucking cold
Good luck all for the third one, maybe we should all chip in and get Brad one of those Thai full body-to-body massages to relax...
Stars walk the red carpet because they're famous - I walk the toilet paper because im the shit.
I got it... I'll get back to you asap. I have a close friend in town and some other framing projects for people here Im working on...
yeah no worries. Im not in a huge hurry... I just want to make this one look unique. whenever you have a chance shoot me an email or even a PM on here
thanks again!
In this case, no, but if/when the site is capable of handling the traffic, would a faster connection be more advantageous over a slower connection?
I genuinly have no idea, hence the questions.
Sure faster is better but it gets to a point where it doesn't matter. Someone with a 30MB fiber line could be shut out and someone with a 700kbs DSL connection could get in fine... there are many variables and speed is only part of the equation
Im not trying to tell you how to host your site at all but perhaps there are some other hosting companies that may be able to manage your traffic for this sale a bit better...
As a teenager, Seattlest loved posters. We plastered Miami Vice stills rock gods, Tiger Beat pages swimsuit models and sports stars on our walls with tacks, tape and that white boogery stuff. Some boys grow up and out of the phase. Others become obsessed with poster art, set up savings accounts for Flatstock, and bitch about those who “flip,”—resell high-demand gig posters—for a steep profit. (We fall somewhere in between.) Artillery Design, a new site from Seattle-based artist extraordinaire Brad Klausen, should satisfy the latter group.
Klausen is synonymous with Pearl Jam. He and the folks at Ames Bros. have a Ticketmaster-like monopoly on the band’s image, and that’s a good thing.
Klausen is awesome. Just look at this crimson beauty for PJ’s recent Dusseldorf show.
Klausen is coveted. The poster at left goes for around $150 on eBay. We’re guessing it sold at the show for $25 US dollars. For most people, auctions are the only purchase option—and sellers know it. (Some collectors—and flippers—will be pissed that we advertised Artillery’s launch, ‘cause it could mean one less poster for them.)
Sadly, per a note from Klausen, “Until PayPal approves my application, I cannot accept payment.” And: “For now, all the posters are listed as SOLD OUT. (Keep in mind that some actually are sold out.)” We won’t even guess how much he’s asking for these babies. Or which of them will actually be available. Or what, if anything, will be signed and numbered.
Happily, he hopes to have his work officially up for sale today or tomorrow. Looks like it’s time for a payday loan, boys.
Everybody made a movie....
Everybody had a one line.....
Everybody misses Andy....
We'll be seeing him in no time.... Oh Yeah.....

Thanks for the post oh Gr8 one. Throwing in the link just for the heck of it.
this whole poster experience, is all very bizarre to me...
Its a testament to the quality of your work, you've got a lot of fans.
The bugs will get worked out, some of us will end up happy, some may not, but we all appreciate the opportunity.
i'm sorry for the " breakdown ", BK ;
also sorry for everyone that sat by anxiously all4nthing today ( and whatever hour it was where you are from ) - Itsucks when you are so amped and so so pumped when the hour arrives , .......................... then to have the carpet pulled out from under you abruptly and without any clue .
id be a liar if i didnt say i was also glad to hear , i still may be able to secure these few that i still want,& then to finally call it a day . ( until the next gig i attend )
at the same time the Poster Gods must have agreed that i should be in on all this action, too.
thanks PGs
For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside

You must have some solid karma built up Bath. Uh, how's Monday looking for you? If BK schedules the relaunch on one of your shifts I guess I might as well not bother.

i do not think that there is an easy answer again look at EMEK he keeps trying different things after his site crashed too many times and he still has no solution....

Thankyou sir, appreciate the heads-up

Just curious, if you're still around reading. How many hits did your site take this afternoon? I was wondering what I'm up against.
Peace,
KJ
I'd be curious too but from a web developer point of view...

Follow lou's lead everyone, flood lunarpages!!!! j/k, dont do that people
think he was on trying to get some klausens and instead did some updating?
In this case, no, but if/when the site is capable of handling the traffic, would a faster connection be more advantageous over a slower connection?
I genuinly have no idea, hence the questions.
i'm thinking most people know never to follow my lead
that's a good point
Sure faster is better but it gets to a point where it doesn't matter. Someone with a 30MB fiber line could be shut out and someone with a 700kbs DSL connection could get in fine... there are many variables and speed is only part of the equation

You're the man Brad... just take it all as a MASSIVE compliment
