Egypt, India, and the Middle East suffers intense impediment to World of Warcraft play. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7222536.stm)

Oh my god, how are we going to deliver trucks now?

Reports are now surfacing that a fourth cable has been cut, this time near UAE. Four within the space of a week....
I think it's time to dust off our tinfoil hats, people.
-
I've already donned my tin foil hat. I figured at three that maybe it was a really bad run of luck but now its way beyond that. The media hasn't picked up on it yet.
-
The media can't pick up on it, they've all been sabotaged too...
'Cept not.
-
One or two? maybe. Four? What are the odds of that happening by chance? Maybe somebody's warming up a nice surprise for the middle east.........

Tell me about it. Internet's been on the fritz here for a while, and playing TF2 online anywhere other than Asia is a ***** :(

*DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUN*

Fifth one has been cut and/or taken offline. Not 100% sure which. Heard both.
-
Why is this happening?

What the ****?
Seriously, something more has to be going on here.
-
What I can't figure out is: who does this benefit? As far as I can tell, no one.
Any number of groups have the logistics to have pulled this off: the CIA, Iran, al Qaeda, Israel or the freaking Masons. But I can't see any possible benefit to anyone aside from the economic distruption it has caused. Who cares if Reza in Tehran can't check football scores online?

They're planning an attack on Sandwitch.
-
It doesn't benefit anyone. There's just no point to doing this delibrately. The only people who have the combination of the resources needed to try this and the stupidity to do so are already in the Middle East, trying to pretend it's the 14th century still. They haven't even cut off Iranian (or anybody else's) internet service, just slowed it down. And the latest breakage affected Vietnam.
Unless it's the whales telling us to stop ****ing with their oceans.

Here's something interesting on a semi related note. The internet went down today for 90 minutes at my college, and apparently it happened at four other colleges too - and all the incoming traffic was rerouted to some overseas location.

Maybe those Dolphins set loose by Katrina have formed some kind of Aquatic A-Team? ;)
-
Clearly, the crabs have begun Phase 1 of their World Domination plan.

That is partially our fault for f***ing up their borders, and Dubya's for declaring crusade. But mostly the fault of Taliban/Hezbolah/Whoever who stir up the rest of the population.

IT'S RAMBO!!!!

Headz will roll.
EDIT: Sandwich is not a woman. :wtf:

They already run Pelagiad. :D

:lol:
The problem with nuking the site from orbit though is that undoubtably some crabs would survive... and they would then mutate into...
GIANT ENEMY CRABS! :eek:
-
The only way to assure we survive is, in this order:
1) Get all population of earth together
2) Make it bath in anti-bacterial solution
3) load 'em into a spceship
4) Bomb all six sextillion tons of earth into oblivion with a 50 petaton nuclear bomb launched from the very depths of the earth (the core)
5) Launch more 50 megaton nuclear missiles at the sun-orbiting asteroids of earth, atleast one missile for one gramm of asteroid
6) Drive the human ship into the sun to reassure nobody has the evil crab virus
Oh, and, of course, you need to dance, wear eye protection and have aluminium foil hats.
This was it for the survival guide.

Fixed!
EDIT: Stones, the nuclear radiation would destroy the antibacterial substance.

Oh, I didn't notice that the ship needs atleast 300 km thick wall of lead.
Now let's see how many Grays you'll measure there :drevil:
Probably enough to melt the Geiger measurer right in the moment you put it outsides.
