RIP it seems...
Although still online until just VERY recently, but with no updates during the COVID pandemic, it seems they have finally pulled the plug. Now when you visit the address, it simply redirects you to flyertalk.com with no further message about what happened to the site. I guess it isn't surprising. However, it seems they would have at least posted a message stating why or "good bye" perhaps :-)

RIP FTG...site
First reported in my blog I believe. Miss you Rick, stop by and say hi sometime for the sake of good old days ;-)

The problem with this, plus the demise of Million Mile Secrets, is that it sets a bad example to other companies who may have been thinking of paying heavily to acquire a miles and points blog :-)
