Let me announce the winners for this week's competition:
- Most Popular: Pyro (Jetstar - Fly to Japan for $299!)
- Random Winner: John (Officeworks Exclusive Online Offers & Mystery Gift is Back!)
It must have been a slow-deal week as submission has dropped. It must also have been a slow server day as the server OzBargain runs on is somehow working very hard (although traffic to OzBargain stays constant)! You'll notice that the page generation gets a lot slower and quite a few times you'll see Nginx's Bad Gateway error as my webserver cannot connect to our PHP backend.
If you have been a long time visitors here you'll know that we do have hosting issue every now and then. The contract I had with the hosting company is due in September so if I am still getting crappy performance like today I'll have to fork out more to get a better hosting package (or relocate the site to US).
Cheers,
Scott

Thanks scotty. Now off to find more bargains… :)
The server has finally came back online running only a single hard disk instead of RAID1. Total downtime — almost the entire day :(
I was almost going to move the entire site to my US server which has been far more stable (but more latency across the pacific).
