I really doubt it. It's actually a pretty tough situation to be in. Imagine they normally have one high powered server running their website. For one day, they're going to have 500x as much traffic as normal (it's seriously probably that big of jump). Do they go out and spend the money to fund the additional 15 servers they'd need to make the site run? But after the ond day is over, the 15 servers are pretty much a waste. Not to mention all the time spent on setting them up.
On the other hand, if they had their website running in a cloud environment (or any virtualized cluster environment) it wouldn't be a big deal! But based on the various error messages I saw on the website yesterday, that's definitely not the case.

Did you ever get in? It took me about 3 mins total to sign up. I must have hit it at the right time.

It was a fucking joke. I was never able to get on or by phone. They had so much time to get ready for this.

It would be interesting to see how many they ended up giving out.
They killed their own server by limiting it to one day only.

But its all good, they hooked me up with a 6 pack a couple months back. Thanks again jarmo and Dr P!

I experienced the same issue, with that I decided Chines Dem definately had more clout, I am not a fan of the product, however, I appreciate their interest in the band, for that I am greatful. By the way I was only going to scrapbook my coupon, not redeem it.
