what wonders me always in this context, that the reports come so fast after late cup rounds. Yes it is fewer games, but if every second german who make a scrimmage play at home, it should be still a lot or is the percentage of scrimmage player so low? Or which i believe is more the reason, did the bot vs bot matches need so much processing.

I think problem of delays stats after matches is in additional time, because if only one team plays extra time we have comunication that our game is still played. And if the last game gives conclusive result than stats scripts counting stats and this takes few minutes.

but I observe at last saturday games that we have stats immediately after game :) there is progress I think :)

We have only 1 or 2 hours difference with USA... it's almost the same. And we've got a lot of users.

well there are all sorts of delays, but that's really the sole problem. That aside, some guys want to quit supportership because of this. There are 2 things i don't get regarding this matter:

1. How is less money going to help them?

2. Why does it have to be a big fuss on the forum? People say "Boo hoo hoo, I'm not gonna buy supporter anymore". So? What are you expecting? BBs showing up begging you not to? If you got financial trouble(in reality) I understand that, If you don't, but just don't enjoy the game as much anymore, that's fine too, but I don't get this drawing of attention... What's it for?
If it's for giving BBs a sense of urgency, well that may work, but I'm sure the BB staff is professional enough in order to do this and don't need it

I have no problems with the occasional delays. They don't particularly influence my enjoyment of the game. I understand how difficult it is to manage a site like this when you are not charging a premium for membership. If I ever leave the game, it will be because I can't win my darn league, not because of the management of the game by BB .

Well it seems on USA you don't suffer the delays, most of the problem is in Europe, but we all pay the same for the supporter.

In other games when delays like this happens or critical bugs occurs, they usually give some kind of compensation like free supporter for X time etc.

I have started to check training one hour from the actual training time. To my surprise it has been finished by that time, three times in a row now. I really feel sorry for the guys who have to wait 4-5 hours though. It becomes a problem for me when the training delay is bigger than 4 hours and only when I have planned to go on a trip with my family. Usually I will leave my laptop at home then. I did buy an ipad2 some time ago. I can't run certain evaluating programs from the ipad (that I have written myself), but I can set lineups depending on gs, so the training delay is not that bad for me any more:) It prolly annoyes the hell out of the BB developers though. I can imagine wrestling the same problem every week, over and over again... and everyone is complaining on top of that.

In that case I would be upset. We have had training delays and some season rollover delays. But nothing major. If Europe is suffering bigger problems, that should be addressed.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

They close the best thread, and they said that was spam, so ... Close this thread too! It's old, and isn't necessary! It's just causing disagreements a lot!
