Hi all.

Last week we worked franticly to resolve the 2 biggest problems affecting the quiz
those are, as you may remember:
- concurrency problems who caused some answers to not being recorded
- slow processing for winners selection

in our internal tests the quiz now run smoothly and we are confident to launch a new quiz by monday evening or maximum tuesday evening Rome time.

Until then, sorry we prefer to not launch any quiz to avoid bugs that could disappoint you.
Best!

I think that the biggest problem still the quiz not starting for a lot of people, but I hope that gets better. <3
I don't know if it would solve, but a suggestion, a confirmation tab that opens 5 minutes before the Quiz starts that go to another tab or just confirm the presence.

~~~sorry for any bad English writing :)

We discovered that many users think the quiz is not started for them but in reality they are not logged(!).

You can only play if you are logged in.

Probably we need to highlight this better.

This quiz counter is like a counter for Half-Life 3, when it get close to zero then always extra time added.

Get on with the quiz already. You've been postponing it perpetually for the last 2 weeks.
If it ain't gonna happen, announce it so and disable the timer.

It's now been well over 14 hours. It's been more than 20 hours.

There were probably not enough critters prowling about, so they kept pushing back the starting time until it was obvious not enough will show up, so they decided to lower the prize instead.

I don't see the time of the quiz at all. It remains only to sit for days and update the page. It's like Mary-Celeste then closer, then farther, and nobody knows when.

Starting to wonder if the servers are suffering from some sort of temporal distortion. The timer keeps jumping up and down like a yoyo on steroids.

Just finished another one - which removed $0.40 from my previous winnings ...

Edit: Never mind. It seems to be correct. Previously it showed total GalaCredit - but now it only shows the winnings. I had some converted GalaGold from before.
