🥳 Giveaway r/webhosting x UptimeRobot. 10 Winners

Hey r/webhosting! We're UptimeRobot, and we've teamed up with the mods to run a giveaway for this community, with a prize pool of 10 monitoring plans, including a year of our Scale plan worth $888. Anyone who's worked in hosting, sysadmin, or dev long enough has a story about an outage that made absolutely no sense at the time (or made way too much sense in hindsight). Now's your chance to share it and maybe win something for your trouble.

What's the weirdest or most ridiculous reason you've ever seen something go down?

An intern's mistake that took out a production database, a CEO blunder nobody dared mention, a squirrel in the wrong place at the wrong time... we want to hear it.

Prizes (10 winners total)

  • 1 grand prize winner: Scale plan ($888 value) plus UptimeRobot swag
  • 2 runners-up: Team plan ($468 value each) plus UptimeRobot swag
  • 7 additional winners: Team plan ($468 value each)

How to participate
Reply here with your story. You don't have to write an essay. That's it, you're in!

Dates: The giveaway runs from October 8 through October 22.

Looking forward to reading your weird, embarrassing, ridiculous, and funny stories!
