pity i couldn't get on DM to actually see this notice, heh?  ::)

Some people were able to load DM, albeit exceedingly slowly. This was for those who could, everyone else was kinda dependant on the 6 degree's of seperation via instant messengers.

i thought it was 7 degrees?  ;D

Pretty sure its 6. I'm part of a facebook group called 6 degrees of seperation.

i tried joining that thing, but it was too much effort  :P
