So it goes to a godaddy landing page. Either Micon was hacked and parked the DNS until it gets straightened out or he threw in the towel for the site with no traffic.
Anyone know ?

Weird. It worked like 5 minutes before you posted that, but yeah, it's now a godaddy park page.
My guess is that Micon forgot to pay the GoDaddy bill.
Note that this is different than the server bill, as DD is hosted on iWeb (at least last time I checked).
hilarious
how do you forget to pay 20 a year for the one asset you have?
I guess he could be moving severs but that requires money so doubtful
I need a custom title. Soothsayer or Seer. Either will work. TY in advance, Dan Druff.
Nope, just checked:

A few interesting things here.
This is NOT a billing issue, as Micon doesn't owe them any money until November.
The domain was updated today, though. Not sure why.
Someone changed DD to a parking page. Not sure if it was intentional, or if someone hacked them.
Emergency radio spot call Micon.
:makeitso
No, it's down.
I believe you're still connecting to the iWeb server hosting DD, as your ISP probably hasn't caught onto the fact yet that something has changed.
It's a process called propagation, and can take up to 48 hours for all ISPs to reach the same place.
That's why I ran this site on pokerfraudalert.net and pokerfraudalert.info for awhile, while I was in the process of changing ISPs.
You could be right, but I don't think so.
A server move would direct some people to the new server and some to the old server.
This directs people to either the existing server or the Godaddy parking page.
LOL @ thinking he would have warned the community before moving, though. Just like he warned everyone to make sure their e-mails were current before forcing them to reset their passwords via e-mail.
I'll tell you one thing, though.
Micon is a stubborn SOB.
Zero chance he is giving up on DD at this point. Remember how many years he left up goldenteeplayers.com before finally pulling the plug?
Micon is the the last guy to pull the plug prematurely and bail out at the first sign of adversity. He's pretty much the opposite of a quitter.
He has the opposite problem. He dreams too much and often believes things will work out when they actually have little chance of doing so.
I predict it will be back up soon, but this is still really peculiar, especially since it's not billing related.
It is unlikely it is a new server as he would have just moved the IP to the new IP and never the godaddy site. Looks like homeboy didn't pay his bill. I'll chip in for godaddy bill, we can send it bitcoins but it might take awhile to cashout to USD. Doesn't micon have other sites ? His goldentee site still up ?
