Has anyone else been having trouble with sporadic server slowness. It seems like much of the time things move at normal speed. But sometimes I open a storylet or pick an option or attempt to draw cards or just hit the page and everything will freeze up for up to a minute or two. Then things will go fine until the next time it happens. Sometimes it's an isolated incident, sometimes it's every other click and renders the game practically unplayable. Worth noting this is the Web UI. I'm not using either of the mobile apps.

Has anyone else been encountering this or are the servers just out to get me?

The only thing worse than Luck Challenges on the Winking Isle is slow luck challenges on the Winking Isle. Failbetter, please buff your servers.

It has been struggling lately. Someone needs to apply more Duct Tape to the poor thing.

Well, now I can't load the storynexus at all. But I'm glad it's not just me and my abysmal internet connection.

It's not just you. They are out to get everyone.

As of right now, FL is completely dead - instant blank screen. Not even an error. Or at least not one you can see - "503 (Service Unavailable: Back-end server is at capacity)" is what is actually coming back.

But in general, response times have been fluctuating between barely tolerable and unplayable for a while now. Maybe adding Android app into the mix was what pushed it over the edge.

It has happened before. Then it got sorted out, and was super fast for a while. Now it's not again. Such is the life of web apps...

Things seem to be mostly back to normal over here. Ran into one freeze up but other than that everything is moving along nicely. Man, yesterday was a bad day to forget to discard something for Winking Isle THREE times (money, Connected: Society, Favours: The Docks). The repeated journeys and especially getting rid of those society connections were a very slow process.

I feel like it's been getting increasingly slower over the past month ago. Tonight Fallen London is unplayable.

Down For:~6 mins
Fallenlondon.com is DOWN for everyone.
It is not just you. The server is not responding...

At least 2nd time in last 24 hours. I've been away from the game for a week and return to this. Feels bad, man. As far as i can see it's apps' sync to blame. Statement from devs would be appreciated. From my work experience, it's much better for a customer to see the actual announce of the site downtime for refurbishing and maintenance than visit the (once)beloved resource and experience this

I've also found it unplayable at times for about ten days now. Screen hangs, images fail to display. It seems especially bad in the early morning, when all those turns are just a-waiting!
