Site is fizz?

I had fizz heard buzz fizzbuzz, well fizz buzz of it but didn't know it was a thing to solve.

(How is fizz relevant buzz this?)

It was simply the test someone else gave me to get my account so I figured it would appropriately filter out the audience. They just wanted to make sure it was very hacker/programmer-centric, I imagine. Such a test is a good filter of that. And if you just google a fizzbuzz solution and send that, obviously its interesting enough you would be motivated to learn some things, and who isn't going to help foster that?

Is what I did something like what you're talking about?

(Replace every 3rd word with fizz, every 5th word with buzz)

I don't crave an invite, I just want to know that this is for sure what you're talking about.

Oh! You want program code :)

I meant to tell you that the site is down (fizz), but it looks like someone else figured out that it works without the www.
