Big Fish Games

A fire in downtown Seattle at Fisher Plaza around 11 pm last night knocked out a server farm, which serviced multiple web based businesses (including Big Fish Games), as well as a few TV and Radio stations. According to Seattle City Light spokesman Scott Thomsen, the fire started in the basement where the city and building power lines meet. During the blaze, the sprinkler systems as well as firefighters doused the flames with water, leaving the building unable to restore power. As of now, most of the websites are still being affected as they are scrambling to create or migrate to backup systems elsewhere.
A spokesperson from Big Fish Games stated that they are currently attempting to bring up their disaster recovery centers in other locations, but that it will still be 12 to 24 hours before that is complete (which is much quicker still than waiting for Fisher Plaza to fix the situation.
