We have just had a serious issue resulting in significant site downtime.
It has only been possible to roll back to a previously saved version of the database which means people may have had to take the same turn again, apologies for the inconvenience.
Time has been added to turns for this period.
There are still a number of large issues to be resolved.
So does this mean that the site will not be returned to where it was on 1/2 around 2 pm, PST? Too bad if that is the case. Playing in 1 game where an additional player had been eliminated and had the other player down to 13 troops with me having over 90.

Unfortunately the site could only be restored to the last available full backup.
catstevens: you are now an honorary American TG...Congrats
Thankfully I don't have alot of the games at the moment but the ones I do are barely playable... tons of time outs and various other oddities.. perhaps just take the whole thing down till its fully ready?
Anyhow - appreciate whomever is trying to fix it but I'm finding it extremely frustrating to use in its current state.
Earlier today I was able to join my games but not start any of my turns or chat. Now I am unable to join my games. After loading for about 15 secounds I get this message, "Gateway Timeout: The gateway did not receive a timely response from the upstream server or application."
I am having issues with ending games. Takes at least 3 reloads to end game. Also seems 24 hr clock is sort of screwed up. I know I played my last game mid morning yesterday and had no games left to play and this morning I needed to play by 6:00 a.m. Thanks for help. Sorry about the issues.
EDIT: This issue seems to have abated since I reported it earlier this morning.
There are problems with the Beta System. The games from "Alpha" were duplicated on the Beta, but that's not a big deal. However I was playing some scenarios there (and working on several other scenarios) and now almost all of them have disappeared.
Our current avatars were replaced by the old ones during the recent refurbishing and now there is no "Upload avatar" button to use to restore the current avatars.

I've seen several players say this, ThaHunter. I think it's universal within CC. Sometimes my game freezes completely when I'm ending a turn and I have to press Ctrl and F5 to continue.
I was in a game and unable to deploy any troops because of lag. Tried numerous times with refresh, screen refresh, log out and back in, etc. I just decided to log out and return in a while.
I came back to a message saying that I have timed out and missed my turn.
Is there any resolution to this?
I often play games on the Beta System. I have also created many scenarios, some of which were accepted as Alpha. Ever since the recent downtime, all of my scenario "works in progress" have disappeared.
Can those scenarios be recovered? The same thing happened several months ago, and they were successfully restored.
