almost willy-nilly beefed up the servers and annouced Free Day around the

simply the response they are receiving from the public is so massive, that
they simply underestimated what they needed by a factor of 10! That or their
webservers aren't configured right =)

What better test of server performance as a ten-fold increase in load? 
Let it hit early... so you can learn from it while you have people 
standing by.
