I posted a long message that somehow got lost, so I'll make it brief.
Your site has been hijacked since at least the announcement t. I've used tons of different devices, phones, tablets, desktops, laptops, and it's always something different. Might want to check on that.
Also, I'm still sad that I didn't end up getting the mai tai glasses.
However, I am very, very excited to finally come down for my first Hukilau! Huzzah!!
