Read what he wrote ffs. It says SOMEONE ELSE on the same network switch was under attack. This was not targeted at Blockland.
The problem with RTB was an oversight on my part, when you start up RTB it needs to verify you with the BL auth server (which was down) which meant the user hung on a timeout of 5 seconds and it retried 5 times, so about 500 users were holding open connections for about 25 seconds which messed things up a bit with the connection limit on our db. I've changed things up to stop this happening in the future.

i think that we've avoided real hackers thus far is commendable.
