Did anybody else see that too?
I did as well ( from Canada.)
I did as well from the US! Thanks to ponchi for all the work you’ve done on this

My first thought was that ponchi has forgotten to add Switzerland on some "allowed" country list. Obviously not the case.

No jinx but as y'all can see I was busy on the site. I wanted to get as much up as I could.

We spent almost all day in MEDIUM security level and the guest count was around 280-300. Which is manageable.
Still keeping an eye on this.

Ok. Medium security level seems to be alright for our needs. We are usually hovering around 300 guests, which are benign bots.
However, there is one more thing. I have blocked traffic from China, N Korea and Cuba. I need to know if there are any users here that are using Russian servers, because they are the last ones I want to block. If you use one of those, let us know, so I will not block the entire country. But, if you don't, I will block Russian traffic in a few days.

I was finally able to get back in tonight. I was getting the too many failed login attempts message someone mentioned earlier. (And that would have been absolutely true. I tried a few dozen times at least and did a zillion captchas--correctly). I even got that again this time, but then it decided my captcha was well enough done to let me in.

I missed y'all. And a zillion thanks to ponchi for fighting the good fight. Your predecessor called it whackamole-ing.
