Steam Down

Posted by satchmo · 12/15/06 @1:04 pm · steam updates · 8 comments

Valve is having a major issue with Steam. No one is able to log on, and the forum/support section of the site is overwhelmed.

There is no official message when the system might resume service again. The service disruption is probably related to the power outage in the Northwestern region in the US (and Canada). The power outage was brought on by a winter storm.

In the mean time, just put up more holiday decoration to pass the time. It could be days before we can play again.
