[Official] Website "lag" reports

[lackattack]

Slowdown after the site went back up. But I suppose that's to be expected?

-Sully

Yes, the database had to "warm up"

Hopefully it had time to stretch, too. Wouldn't want it to pull a muscle now

Thanks!

Not only timeouts...also the game changing attacks during the timeout. Which is a nightmare! And it leads to a higher number of double yellows...the game gets stuck in a certain set of outcome.

Ah well...not that you play this game serious

Lack,

Just a short one. I appear to be getting "lag spots" every 3 or so seconds. It is only happening on Conquerclub, has been consistent for the past 30 minutes or so.

Cheers

Concise description:

• I played 4 speed games at once of which none worked properly. Every time firefox gave me that usual error weather I want to wait another 10 seconds for page to load or not, it was that slow that, EVEN WHEN PLAYING ONLY ONE GAME, it was impossible to make a turn, of taking, let's say 12 territories, in 5 minutes. one game was lost before the issues started (first turn was okay in all games) but the other 3 I was in great advantage what can be seen from gamechat (pardon my cursing there, you must understand how i felt). One of the games ended with another player being kicked out for missing too many turns.
  You will see in gamelog that it took forever between turns, and even starting a turn took forever (that little time between pressing begin turn and being ready to deploy armies was taking approx a minute or so!!!)
  
  These were the actions taken to eliminate possible causes:
  -tested internet on other website of which some were USA based as CC server is, everything worked fine, except CC
  -turned of all script thinking about that there might be some issues with that
  -today on same PC, same connection, works perfectly
  
  please fix that because I do not want anyone else to relive that frustration!

Specifics:

• Game 10132211
  Game 10132204
  Game 10132206
  Game 10132201

The site itself lags as well...there is a topic about it but the three times I have posted about brutal lag lack posts back and says there was no issue....so there is some bull going on...but us minions are not supposed to know about it.

Most of the reports about lag have been isolated to individual users, and not a site-wide thing, except during the early morning hours in the USA, where the server does a catch-up for a few minutes.

The servers are in Texas I believe, but regardless, you shouldn't have such a problem. You might have a problem with you DNS or something....

of course it "little man's" fault and not of the server, not matter that the only website lagging is this one. Yeah, the browser is also faulty, maybe i should use netscape or IE?
Sarcasm aside, we are paying customers and we want a finished product. Isn't that the way it works over there in US?
I know that there might be a technological faults but be human and at least apologize.

While it's still possible it's a problem on our side, usually problems in the server or the networking present in more than one user. It's also much easier to diagnose problems with you than to diagnose problems with the datacenter. There are dozens of causes of why some websites load slow and others don't. Most likely, if it's not caused by something on your system, it's networking related. Which is usually even harder to resolve.

there is no greasemonkey for Chrome mate...

[Arcee]

My understanding is that the add-ons work on Chrome without Greasemonkey.
