Oftentimes that happens with DDOS attacks, a denial of service attack by bot nets...

It seems they like to target bitcoin website quite a lot, you will see the bitcoin casinos down occasionally from them,

could be their competitors, who knows...

Just heavy load by massive users, if you refresh again it should work...

It is down again, and no message about maintenenace or anything like this from the admin...
Hope will be back to normal.

Hope so. I'm new to it. Prices not worth it, but great way to make quick extra cash .
Like a casino with a relatively good chance of success if you're not greedy

It's unfortunate but it seems to me that many sites related to BTC go down a lot.  It's one thing I was hoping would get improved as Bitcoin gets more mainstream.

Right now too.

Are you sure its cloud flare? Sometimes its often the hosting on where the website is located.

They will charge soon a lot of money, I had there even 180 GHs at one moment, then was hacked and lost 17GHs (0.5 BTC) there when the value was high, so this site is not making profit for traders but for owners only.  
So I only left there 0.5 Ghs now and is growing low... just for playing the game not for making profits.
Be careful if you have there big amounts of money.

I would try flushing your IP address if your having that isssue. I recently joined cex.io and I have to say love it thus far the customer support has been great and I finally got some mining power as I don't have the funds to really buy a $4000 asic rig at the moment.
