I broke it. I was the "DROP TABLES" guy, and you'll want to sanitize the text before it goes into the db. I typed "; DROP TABLE `users`; Which made every person stop moving, and then on page reload nothing happens. (So the `users` table is dropped.) Sorry!! I didn't mean to break it, I wanted to test it.

Ha. Nice try. We don't have any table called users :)

..but if anyone knows why it sometimes freeze, please let us know. We were not excepting this kind of traffic.

Hmm, I assumed that I broke it because of two tries (with page reloads between) and it froze/broke after.

EDIT: Alright, it works. But, as before it won't show the text of my input (when it's an attempted SQL injection). Are you trying to hide it or not? (e.g. if someone types "Hello, World" (with quotes) they will want those to appear.)

We are experiencing some heavy load on the servers. Please bare with us and don't hesitate to leave any feedback! Site credits: http://twitter.com/danielmahal - frontend http://twitter.com/hpeikemo - server http://twitter.com/hugoahlberg - design

So what kind of servers/load are we talking about? This is really interesting, I'd love to hear some figures.

Yep the server dude went to bed. haha. but we'll try to do some more testing and see where we can optimize both in frontend and backend. And of course tell you what we find out…

Headed south and got an, "Ooops. Did you do this? The mother-frog is unable to deliver you to the primordial pond. Please try later to play with other Rumpertrolls." I wonder if I hit an integer overflow...

Forgot to mention, awesome little demo!
