My guess is that devs come from Europe, and when you complain about them ignoring problem, they in fact sleep (when the breakdown could have happen at 4-6PM of American time, it has been after midnight in Europe).
Probably game code stopped at one point and need to be restarted in few hours.


This is fine, but it would be nice if these delays were communicated when they happen. I’ve said it before, a simple message on the home page stating something like “We are aware of delays in the games and the developers have been alerted. We hope to have the issue resolved within a few hours” would go a long way to ease people’s minds about what is happening with the game. Just a bunch of users reporting it on the message boards makes it seem like the owners/developers don’t care. I know they have day jobs and this game runs 24 hours a day, but there should be a structure in place so the powers that be can notify the rest of us that all is well. I don’t think that is too much to ask for.

That's computer error. If you know anything about scouting you will know my salary and that I didn't play my best players and you have no enthusiasim left in the tank should be a easy dub at home.

Honestly didn’t scout your team at all. Even still did my two position training because this is a cake walk finals. Best guards didn’t play game one. Lol.

Honestly this is what not scouting a team can do to you that's rule number 1 in all systems.

Nice to have smack Talk, but the bug forums really isn’t the place for it guys. I see new messages here and hope it’s from a B.B. explaaiming the situation, I missed out on an auction last night that I wanted by 20k which I would’ve gotten had I received my relegation game funds. That auction was later than 2 AM. Games scheduled for 8pm should not be 6+ hours late. I’d like to know what’s going on as a paying supporter of this game, I love the game but if we can’t get a smaller game slate simulated on time, it makes me worry about the state of this game for the future. Hoping for official comment, not smack talk from you two lol

Do donations instead of buying supporter get your name up near the top. Games didn't run because it went to uncharted territory and it never happen in the finals before.

The delay happens when one of the scheduled processes gets stuck and everything else is delayed. These delays are unexpected of course, and while we're trying to avoid them, sometimes they still happen. We've had long periods without them and now we have them again. The problem is that we can't really find a cause for them.

The fact that the devs are from Europe is true, and we can't cover all of the 24 hours each day. We have EGMs and other guys from different parts of the world with access to our contact info (so they can call in case of delays or emergencies) but not even that guarantees total coverage. We will give access to that info to more people to help prevent these kind of issues in the future. Also, I plan to have some kind of detection code that would let us know if delays happen. Sadly, this can only send us emails, can't really call, for that we need real people.

So, we're taking this very seriously but there are limits with what can be done, sadly.

I think the engine has a mind of its own. Also cost me the first loss in the finals and playoffs. but I wasn't playing my best lineup and I was running four guards. I believe I am getting auto win tonight.
