Just for me or what? Thought my cards died but no, their site also isn't accessible.

Possibly no hack or something, official statement via btcforums:
dbitcoin (owner): "Pool hosting have a problem with upstream network provider. This should be fixed within 1-2 hour (I hope)."
Yesterday I had similar issue with bitcoins.lc for an hour or two. Now everything is back to normal.
Now you made me thinking about using software wallet instead of keeping coins on pool's/market's account...

This. Use USB sticks to backup your wallet once you received coins. Use encryption also.
Wallet: check.
Backup: check.
Encryption: check.
What is your experience with transferring coins from pool's account into your wallet? It is almost 4 hours already and i am getting a little bit worried...

It should certainly be sorted by now. If not, there's a problem, and all I can think to do is to ask the pool operator.
After a night coins were there. I am not impressed. Damn slow electrons :hehe:
