Still can't view box score from 2nd finals game but players bios show stats from the game.

Only trouble-- wrong positions for the tactics I submitted! What the hell? Not impressed if this result stands when I played different tactics than the first game...

Well, this is embarrassing. The matches were calculated correctly, but due to an unknown database issue, some of the data was not saved. I have no words.

In order to shed some light on the whole issue, I'll try to give you a short timeline of how this came to be. First, I completely missed the fact that most yesterdays matches have not started on time, so that's on me. I was informed of the issue at 4AM (CET). At 6AM, I fixed the issue that cause the delay and the matches finally ran. Again, at that point I was completely unaware of the issue with the boxscores.

If I had been aware of the missing data, I could have rerun the matches. This means that some matches might have been calculated differently, so that option is not exactly a preferred one. The alternative is this: we leave the matches as is and just force the boxscore page to show the data it does have. This is what I ended up doing anyway.

Of course, this couldn't have happened at the worse time, as never do the consecutive matches run so close together as this.

Our database, hardware and software both, are, lately showing so many signs of wear and tear that we might be pushed to stop work on everything else and try and migrate BB to a new server. This means a lot of downtime. Were talking days. Hopefully, this is not what we're gonna have to do, but we might as well. Usually, such downtime should be announced months in advance but this might push our hand. I'll let you know once I confer with my colleagues.

As usual, sorry for the inconvenience. I'll see what I can do to calculate some of the missing data for the affected matches but I know for a fact that for most of it, it will not be possible.

And now the box score is showing entirely the wrong tactics used. Everything needs rerun.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2).

Just shut down everything, instead of new season tommorow, lets have the new season next monday, if it means solving so many problems right now and in the future then just do it, its the best time to do it right now.


Hope you will hear this and do it this time. That's an emergency i think. And i think lot of players are able to wait 15 days to have insurance that bugs will not happened again. Most of us already play this "old" game, we can wait 15 days, we aren't like actual teenagers ^^
