I added a small PHP widget to the top right corner of the homepage (above donations) that shows the current status of the CoDWaW servers. It attempts to load the IP address of the DEMONWARE account verification service of CoDWaW (found it using a TCP sniffer). The service is currently unreachable, which makes sense since CoDWaW can't connect. I assume this service will be reachable when the CoDWaW servers come back online. The widget will check the servers every time you refresh the page

Sweet!
