Did the mobile app just corrupt my account? Messages in this topic - RSS

Have not been able to login for the past two days. I tried to use the mobile app and it said something about syncing failing and attempting to reload a previous save, then froze up. Exiting and trying again, just leads to "presync failed" and a long error message. Now attempting to login regularly with my browser leads to usually error message received when the servers are down. As far as I can tell though, this is only happening to me, so now I'm concerned something with my account is now damaged.

Has anyone had a problem like this before? I submitted a ticket but I think the Failbetter staff is busy with the holidays. Meanwhile, there's a lot of possible card refreshes passing me by, meaning a lot of opportunities to draw urchin cards and stockpile pails of so called snow for an attempt at the Noman. I'm growing increasingly nervous here.

Here is what I did to get an error in the first place:

1. I was playing The Empress’ Shadow on iOS while I noticed a strange thing: even while I am in Jenny’s School I saw regular Opportunity cards, not School-related ones.

2. I even managed to complete the story, but then I tried to try the School again and obviously got stuck (maybe there’s no way out of school without Opportunity cards except giving up teaching, which I didn’t want to do).

3. So I logged in browser, but it didn’t help: I still saw the same opportunity cards. So I used a storylet for Exceptional Friends to move to my Study and then to Lodgings.

4. Then I returned to Ladybones Road and re-entered the school. Finally, I clicked on Opportunity deck and saw some new cards I haven’t seen before.

5. I tried to relaunch the app, but it stuck on loading.

6. I went back to browser, confirmed that I am ready to lose my app’s progress, and got the error page.

7. I mailed support and they kindly unlocked me, however the app still doesn’t work correctly inside the school. Moreover, if I visit school in browser and then try to login in the app, the app is getting stuck on loading. However as soon as ai leave the school in browser, the app works ok again.

One heartfelt card, several gentlemen?

Office is closed for Christmas - support will be the first thing I'm on as soon as I'm in, I promise! Sorry.

It is still a national holiday in the UK, I think. No reason why anyone should be in the office to respond. (Although it must be very frustrating!)

Edit: beaten to it by someone in the know!

Same. It looks like I could make a new account, but I can't log into my own.
