I just tried to access littlegolem via littlegolem.net, like I usually do (I think), but couldn't access it. www.littlegolem.net however is still working fine. Do other people experience the same? Is this deliberate?
Public forum discussion.

works fine for me

actually it doesnt work for me if I do add the www.
26 Feb 2016
Weird. For me it's still like I described.

In a navigator, littlegolem.net redirects to www.littlegolem.net for me. But when doing a whois, it's just the opposite (www.littlegolem.net redirects to littlegolem.net), which is normal since the www is a subdomain.
In any case, both should work. You may want to clear your DNS cache (google it ;) ). Or maybe the redirection is not working in your navigator (what OS/navigator versions do you have?).

I noticed the site was down last weekend for an entire day, and also the weekend before that. Was down for quite awhile today, too.

In fact, for me neither www.littlegolem.net nor littlegolem.net works. The only way I could come here is by googling for LG's IP address and using that instead of the domain name.

LG was down for a day and a half for me, it just started working again. And it has gone down for about a day at a time, a few times this year.
27 Feb 2016
I couldn't get to the site, but I was still getting the emails saying that I had used a vacation day. :) I figured it was a DNS problem.
27 Feb 2016
Was down for 2 days for me.
Even tried checking it using this site: https://currentlydown.com/www.littlegolem.net
That side also reported it as being down...2 days...
If I lose any games on time..I guess I'll shop around for a different place to play...
27 Feb 2016
Well, considering that you probably have a ton of vacation days, losing on time is extremely unlikely...
27 Feb 2016
Also, there is no other site where I can play Twixt, and this one is great when it's up :-)
27 Feb 2016
Couldn´t log on to LittleGolem either for duration of 3 days. Now is the first time since wednesday. I´ve been using several ways trying to log in. Nothing seemed to work though.
Lost 2 days of vacation in the process. :-(
28 Feb 2016
When there is an outage, it would be nice to get some extra time on the game relative to the downtime...
28 Feb 2016
I dont think vacation days are an issue here, we just got them refilled off schedule just a few days ago.
28 Feb 2016
I had trouble too to get to the site for the last week or so. But sometimes I do get to it, and try to keep the page open on my android phone, because then it keeps working.
Could there be a limit to the number of users logged in at the same time? I remember that is an option you can apply to a website...
29 Feb 2016
Yes, it was a DNS issue.
