Snapnames down?

For the past 12 hours all I get is:

The SnapNames® site is temporarily unavailable.
We're sorry for this brief inconvenience. Please try again in a few minutes.

Useless anyway. I've stopped using them, since they never give me control over the domains I win... Incompetent bastards.

I'm sitting in a lawn chair outside their office right now, just drinking a few beers. They appear to be closed for the day.

In all likelihhod it's caused by bandwidth issues due to all the ongoing Snapnames auctions and their fast growth.
