Jan 28th 2025 06:40 • sirgoldwyn • Bug has not been reproduced by developers yet:

Everyone is getting the same error message on all BGA games, all browsers, PC and phone (android and IOS). Main website is up, and you can create games. But you cannot enter any existing game and instead get the error message about Wrong formatted data.

Jan 28th 2025 06:40 • JurassicJoy • Bug has not been reproduced by developers yet:

Can't play any game or get into my asynchronous games either. Getting the same error message. Main chat keeps messing up as well. First it was "minimum 30 seconds between messages" but it keeps going up and now I'm at 360 seconds between messages. This is bananas.

Jan 28th 2025 06:40 • RamonaB13 • Bug has not been reproduced by developers yet:

I finished a game and saw the final score. Then I left the website and closed it down. When I came back an hour or so later, it showed that I was still in a game at 93%. But when trying to click on the link, it gave me an error. The only way I could get it to go away was to click the button to leave the game (the one I had fully completed an hour previously). Then it dropped my points from 100% to 80%.
