I typed in SpecialReserve.com by mistake today, and it just brought up a site not found error message...

(actually it brought up that annoying cheesy MSN 'please tye inthe address agaion' page...

So I tried SpecialReserve.co.uk... which didnt take me anywhere either...

I seem to remember hearing/reading that the guy who owned GamePlay or something had grabbed the domain names under his supposed interest in Wines in all its alcholic corkyness...

However, if hes not using the addresses, doesnt that mean he's just squatting? ..

I did that at first. Although then SpecialReserve.com appeared, to my paranoid brain, as a porn site. Don't know why, but it did.

Mr. Shanks, it's because the SR main address is actually specialreserve.net.

*coughs*

special-reserve.net

It's hyphenated. :P
Chances are the com, co.uk etc. would work too, had they remembered to stick the hyphen in. ;)

Actually, it isn't.

Try just doing specialreserve.net, and it comes up fine. No hyphen required in the link whatsoever. :-)

I used to use that and it never worked, always came up as a "page cannot be found". Hyphenated is what I use for the main site, works fine.

Maybe we should hold a competition to guess how many domains SR can be found at.
