# Each case is treated on its individual merits.
I've not heard of them ever taking one down for excessive traffic, but I have no doubt they would if it caused serious problems. However, even a frontpaged image that won the challenge wouldn't cause enough traffic to crash ntl's homepage servers.

# Indeed.
If you REALLY want to know, email [email protected] - that's the AUP department, and they'll tell you how worried they'd be, but I don't think they'd care too much.
