Everyone But Me Get Off!!!
Seriously.



We need a better system than Denial of Service attacks to change our timetables. Here are some things I suggest. Feel free to add. Maybe we'll all send it to the man.

1) Make a ticketing system. Perhaps it could assign people tickets based on when they tried to log in after 8:30AM, and queue them up in a list. How hard could it be? I'm sure there are tons of software eng students willing to do this for free.

2) Up MUGSI limits. It can take a more.
3) Add a timeout of 1 minute to maxon.htm so you can only try to get to the login screen once every minute. It should space things out, and make things seems to work better.
4) Auto log out of solar/mugsi. Does this occur? Or if someone closes the window, does it just wait the full 45 minutes before logging them out?
5) Reduce the 45 minutes to 15. Most people have their changes planned out already. 45 minutes is ridiculously high.

Mugsi login as no queue system, its first come first server and limits the database access. Run a web program to click and refresh the page for you
