The time when McMaster University students try to change or add courses to their timetables and are locked out because the server cannot handle more than X connections.
At least they have a warning message unlike previous years. Why can’t this university’s IT department get its act together? How many students could there possibly be connected at one point? (BTW, if they’re really cutting off students based on number of connections, it’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard. Shouldn’t they use server load as a determinant?)
