Damn You CharlieOscarDelta.com: Beta Give Away Website Down!?

I was trying to check out the Beta Token Give Aways early (it starts 2 PM my time) to see if I could post info for those of you looking for a Token...I've been trying for 30 min on and off and of course, because of WONDAFUU planning, the website is down.

The Official Call of Duty 4 Site

Grats to everyone that was able to log in and hope you get your Beta Keys, but I'm so so sorry to everyone that is trying now because the site is down. This happened during the first "surprise" Beta Token give away as well and it's good to see that they learned from that mistake.

But don't worry. Remember? There were be plenty more chances in September they announced earlier. Still, to schedule a contest and have their site be down? Seems pretty lame.

I'll try to get moar info once I can get onto the site.

UPDATE

It now 2:30 PM and the website is still inaccessible, but check out what I found on Wiki:

On August 27th, 2007, CharlieOscarDelta.com was swamped with excessive traffic several hours before the beta sign up even began. Contrary to what most users hoped for and believed, the server did not hold up at all and most potential beta members were left constantly refreshing an endless number of "Timed Out" error messages. Less than twenty minutes into the sign up, the tokens were gone, with a crappy post on the website stating:

"Although Charlie Oscar Delta's Token Codes have been reserved, there will be many more opportunities to get into the Beta! Check back into SITREP often, as we'll be updating the site with information as soon as it's finalized.

In the United States and Canada, we are working with GameSpot and GameStop on two new ways to reserve a spot in the Beta. Our International users will be excited to learn that plans to get into the Beta are moving along quickly, and we'll have updates for all the countries listed in the FAQ soon!"[11]

Thanks to the company's terrible planning and their server's lack of ability to hold the increased traffic, many users were screwed out of having any legitimate chance of getting into the beta.
