There's no ETA. The site has been up and down for the past few days, but the tracker hasn't been up since this all started.

I was just using it this morning (What's server has been screwy), so this is quite recent; posts on What's forums suggest it's only been like that for an hour. No announcements or anything anywhere I can see.

I searched what's forums for waffles and didn't see anything.

Yeah, the "Favorite Site Down?" in the BitTorrent thread is a great resource.

I used to have a seedbox account when I was doing a ton of live bootleg collecting and it was great. Your ratios would go through the roof on Dime or Zomb. It seems that a seedbox is one of the few ways you can really jack your ratio on What or Waffles though.

Torrent client is installed on a server and downloads/seeds content to and from said server.
There would typically be some bandwidth and memory limits that you can upgrade at additional cost.

You're own internet bandwidth only takes the hit when you download from the server to your PC.
