At 10:03 the system says it is "down."

Now this-

Unable to Process Request
Concurrent requests limit exceeded.


To protect all customers from excessive usage and Denial of Service attacks, we limit the number of long-running requests that are processed at the same time by an organization. Your request has been denied because this limit has been exceeded by your organization. Please try your request again later.

I called the number they gave for people without Internet access at 10:30, waded through the menu and a recording said "all available appointments have been scheduled." I find it really hard to believe that 8,000 people got through on that broken system and made appointments in half an hour. I suspect preferential treatment had taken up most of the appointments before they were offered to us peasants.
