Aug, 04: RESOLVED - Due to unexpected demand, the service may experience sporadic higher than usual service loads during certain hours of the day, but most hours should remain unaffected.

Jul, 14: RESOLVED - We might face sporadic high service loads (causing higher than usual solve times) during this week due to festivities in our workers' countries.

Jun, 03: RESOLVED - We'll be performing a very quick server maintenance today, as Yesterday we were not able to do so. This will lead to limited service availability within 15:25hrs - 15:40hrs* (Server Time). We don't expect this to cause negative repercussions on the service afterwards. Thank you for your patience and understanding, we're working hard to offer you a better service!

May, 29: RESOLVED - We'll be performing a scheduled server maintenance that will lead to limited service availability within 17:30hrs - 17:45hrs (Server Time). We don't expect this to cause negative repercussions on the service afterwards. Thank you for your patience and understanding, we're working to provide you a better service!

May, 18: RESOLVED - We went through an emergency server upgrade that caused service unavailability for about 2.5hrs, from 19:00 hrs to 21:30hrs Server Time. We identified the issue, fixed it, and will be working to ensure it doesn't happen again. If you were affected, please do not hesitate to contact Support and we'll gladly compensate you. We apologize for the inconveniences this may have caused you, your business is much appreciated!

May, 18: RESOLVED: We're undergoing an emergency server upgrade that's preventing users from accessing the service.

You may email us at [email protected] for updates.

May, 08: RESOLVED - Due to a technical issue, we're going through a shortage of capacity that's causing higher than usual solve times.

February, 2015

Feb, 16: [RESOLVED]: We might* face shortage of capacity - which may bring occasional high service loads - later on this week due to Lunar New Year and Spring festivities in our workers' countries. This is just a precautionary heads up, as we don't expect this to substantially (if at all) affect your results. We appreciate your business!
