What happened to all the replays on Showdown?

Question

Right, I was going through the replay thread on the RMT section, and I saw that NONE of the replays (even the ones edited into the question, Eg.- Espeon sweep) work. It's not limited to that, my own replays don't work either. Did Showdown have a break-down or something?

Answer 1

I was wondering the same thing earlier. It was a DDoS attack, the replays will be back "soon".
