Anybody knows what has happened with the-magicbox.com?
All I get is Site Unavailable and this message:

This may be due to technical reasons such as a resource overload. Webmasters: you should receive an email from the Silverlime Techs if this is the case.

If you are the account's webmaster, verify that you do not have any unpaid invoices (billing center) and that your account is operating under our terms of service. If you are not receiving your invoices because of a spam filter, please contact our support department. Also, by contacting support, you can automate monthly payment. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call or email Silverlime Communications Inc.

It's been like that for at least one day I think.
Don't want to lose my magic box...

You bastards made me go to that site. Works fine here.

[Arcticfox]

Try its IP address: http://64.94.117.181/

The Magic Box could have had to change servers and your ISP just hasn't updated its DNS list recently so it is sending you to the wrong place.

 

[ourumov]

Works fine for me but this morning I saw this message when trying to access from work.

 

[Sagitario]

The IP that Arcticfox posted works...
The main address doesn't work for me.

Things To Do When Magicbox Goes Down For Exceeding Their Bandwidth
Posted on April 6, 2005 at 04:11:07 PM by Gluecifer

1: Go to IGN, Gamespot, etc, and look for previews and game announcements only to realise they only cover shit games you have no interest in.

2: Realise MagicBox's previews are much better than any other sites as they don't go off spouting drivel they "hope" the game will be, but just list the features, date of release and a bunch of screens and let the reader work out if they like it or not, so you stop bothering with the other sites and try to find a new site for gaming news.

3: You keep looking.


4: You give up looking

5: After a couple of hours you realise how shit the internet really is without MagicBox, up and wish that the The GIA.com was still around, so you go through the the internet wayback machine and revisit all those awesome stories about wonderful new Dreamcast games.

6: You go back to MagicBox and realise its not actually going to come back online tonight and and theres no point refreshing it.

7: You start looking for porn out of boredom then realise you aren't particularly in the mood for a wank as the internet's become such a huge disappointment.


8: You jerk off anyway, a tired, laborious,unfulfilling wank that leaves you feeling more depressed MagicBox isn't up than before.


9: You check again, just in case, but its still not coming back up.


10: You type out all the things you did on an internet forum to try and kill time waiting for MagicBox to get back up, and in the back of your mind hope that its passed enough time that its back up.

11: Reload the MagicBox homepage and its still fucked.

12: Go to bed unhappy and feeling out of the loop with the hottest gaming news for the day.
