Did anyone used to play on sudoku.org? Anyone know what happened to the site? It went offline last week.

It forwards to the RealArcade sudoku.com site. Did it do that before, or did RealArcade take it over recently?

That's the one I've experienced problems with. A couple of weeks back it would not load at all. Then all that appeared was an IIS7 welcome box, which I did not want to explore. Now the front end appears, but clicking on Advanced Puzzles I get the following:
"500 - Internal server error.
There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed."

This appeared also when I tried the Contacts page.

I begin to wonder if the site has been taken over, by fair means or foul.

Take a look at this topic, which has much more recent information on their status. They haven't been hijacked, but seem to just be taking a long time to recover from server problems.
