FR is running better than it has been the last few days.
Perhaps FReepers can’t get here?
I have had full expectation of internet difficulties up to election day. Specifically to avoid mass reporting of voter fraud. I predict it will fall down hard on election day.
I think FR might seem or feel to be running faster right now because a large chunk of the broadband Internet links are basically underutilized right now.
Think of it like driving down the freeway at 3 a.m. with little traffic.
