Unfortunately, in my experience AoN responds as if it is under a DoS attack even under normal circumstances...
Huh, I've been using it for years and never ran into any issues.

They've reworked their database to fix those issues: you can look up spells, for instance, without the noticeable delay that it used to have. If you haven't tried it in a while, I'd suggest you give it a try again and give it spin.

Something with cache limits made some sections of the site slow down the later in the day it was do to prior traffic: I don't recall the exact specifics. I just know that they fixed all the issues I used to have earlier in the year.

So, I won a giveaway on the twitch stream for some books, and I've got a pass for a pop-up gencon thing at my local game store where I can get 20% off the books, and I'm not canceling the deluxe preorders I had...
I'm so excited I might need to lay down.

Congratulations! That's very exciting!
So, how many hours/minutes/seconds until I can purchase my PDF version of the first two books of 2nd Edition? Do we have an official countdown? I'm in Italy, GMT+2, when will I be able to throw my hard earned coins at my computer's screen and get what I want?
I see that we missed by several hours the "less than 30 hours" milestone.
Today is the day!!!!
T MINUS ZERO!

11:30 pm in my spot of the Wonderful Land of Oz (and yes Australia does have a 1/2 hour offset timezone; it is strange)
Over here it will be release on my lunchtime.
Release is 2 in the blasted am here in NZ. Eh, it may take some time and consideration of the rules on AoN before I buy anyway.

I have to wait two and half hours more - 12:00 pm is the time set for the brazilian release.

Whoever predicted a disaster on the site was completely wrong. It took me less than 2 minutes to buy, pay, and download. Delighted!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL, I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE AND DOWNLOAD THE PDF,

Can confirm, I just purchased the PDFs.

Btw, regarding the PDFs - once you buy them, do you get access to updated ones as errata comes out? Just wondering
That was the case for everything first edition that got errata. Don't think it will change with second edition.

In the PF1 we did and I have not seen any change in their policy.
Its Here! Its Here! Its Here!!!!
A good end to an otherwise subpar day
I downloaded both and the servers appear to be holding up so far.
Good luck, Paizo, on this day of days

They moved the digital downloads part into "the cloud"! It's all running on AWS at this point (from what I can tell) and they can scale everything up massively for days like this where they're going to be slammed.
Yeah, moving the heavy load to AWS was the best tech decision they've ever made, I think.
