Maintenance always screws up the game!

  Dear all, and specially WGT,

  Why is that that the game always screws up after a (monthly) maintenance by WGT? Specially the game suffers from severe troubles uploading and freezes harder and more often then Captain Iglo in the Arctic.

  When playing Blitz, skin or match play, this is really troublesome! Can WGT explain this to us? The hamperings occurs every month, right after maintenance, and goes on for a few hours to even a few days. Anything we can do to help/avoid/endure this?

  Don't get me wrong here, maintenance should happen yet somehow I think it should not affect the gameplay afterwards in a negative way. Good luck on solving this!

  You're supposed to clear your flash cache and cookies after every update.

  Dear Buggyyy,

  I perform that action roughly about ten times a day (heavy computer user and I cleared it today already about four times!) but it is not the solution. Thx for commenting though.

  Hi

  I really don't know because I been through at least 30-40 maintenance's and I never had such issue.

  Dear Wgticon,

  I had this several times before, not only today. What struck me today, and made me write about it, is that all of my fellow Blitz players in one and the same game, had the same problem, the game just froze and we were unable to continue for up to three times. Also it took me three or four attempts to get the game started in the first place. In the past, that has happened as well and about always right after a maintenance job. I doubt if that was always coincidence.

  wait, I think I misunderstood. Are you talking about a game when we went for maintenance? Well, that's reasonable since servers went down for a few hours?

  Dear Wgticon,

  No no, I am really talking about right AFTER maintenance has finished its couple of hours.

  Exactly Scottishbloke, frequently there is a problem occurring after maintenance and WGT might make it worth looking into it. Thumbs up!
