Just gave it a try, no luck.

I have an account there, but barely use it. I only downloaded something and seeded a bit to have a ratio above 1.0, for not being removed after a certain amount of time.

I've also had an account on there since before it was officially launched (invited by the Underground gamer staff who set it up), but I've never downloaded much from it. I also just seeded some stuff on there to get a ratio above 1.0 so my account would stay open.

The Bitgamer server has been very flaky in the past few months and I just tried it now and the server cannot be found. I think that maybe due to the size of the torrents they are making their tracker handle it could be crashing their server regularly, but I don't know that for sure.

I will ask some about on Underground Gamer and see if anyone knows what's up with it.

OK, it's an issue with their DNS server losing the domain name. You can get to bitgamer directly at the moment using http://85.17.177.193/

I tried to register using this IP address as an entry to the site but it just keeps telling me I have entered the wrong security code. Its probably going to do this untill they have fixed their server problems so im just going to have to wait...

Some further information. They recently moved the site to a new server, so the DNS servers haven't caught up with it yet, which is the current problem. But it does seem to be taking a long time to do that, which leads me to think they haven't set up their DNS entries correctly. When ever I've moved a site the DNS servers take two days at the most to work properly again, and the site can usually be found using the domain within a few hours of the move from most locations. Very odd.

I was trying to get on there using the IP address at the weekend, but unfortunately as it's changed firefox doesn't remember my password, and I forgot it too. I managed to get the 'reset password' email, but then it goes no further. I will have to sit it out for quite a while, or try harder to remember my password. Or maybe make a new account I suppose

It is a nightmare when you forget your password on sites. I forgot many of mine for sites after I reinstalled my OS recently and had to use the password reset or recovery feature on sites to get back in. I was taking the saved login details of the browser and cookies for granted too much.

I've now started writing the login details down in a notebook so it doesn't happen again.

Heh heh. I feel your pain 'bout the forgotten passwords and login-IDs. Can't count the amount of login details I've forgotten over the years after wiping my Cookies clean.

I have an encrypted file with passwords stashed away somewhere on my PC for cases like that. One password is easier to remember than 50, after all. Woe is me when someone manages to crack the encrypted file, though
