I had a few slow connections yesterday, but no timeouts. I'm in the Eastern US.

Also in the Eastern US, I had slow connections on some threads...but not others. I would second the guess that generating diagrams might play a role.

Boidhre · **#22**

I've been getting time outs fairly randomly for the past two days. Doesn't seem to be diagram related for me, I get it on Unread Posts and in text only threads. No discernible pattern for me. (Ireland, unusual ISP though, it routes traffic differently to all the other Irish ISPs).

Eastern Canada, no issues of the nature you're describing lately.

burrkitty · **#24**

south central US has no issues

North East USA. my internet has been slow recently, but nothing particularly bad about L19

This may be related to the additional work required in composing go diagrams from the tags?

This may be possible, IMHO, right now that MW vs JB thread loads fine except for the diagrammes (just to show that I’m in “Old Europe” ;-)

I checked there and am having the exact same experience on that thread.

Okay, so this might be interesting. At 10pm eastern, I checked the joaz/mw's thread, and as bonobo described, while the diagrams in the first 8 post loaded immediately, the next 8 took 20 seconds, and the last few never finished loading at all. And after trying to access that thread, I wasn't able to load any other page on the site for a few minutes.

No problems to connect from West Germany.

Is it possible that this is a IPv6 issue? I have heard that the internet is successively changing from IPv4 to IPv6.

Does anyone else see this? Have MW and I created the Thread of Doom?

It is the link in my sig.

It's been happening to me when viewing and esp. when trying to reply in a thread with many diagrams. (It's been very difficult to update my journal.)

Right now the Malkovich thread loads fine. Yesterday the diagrams loaded sluggishly or not at all, and later the connection time out error page appeared. Didn't check other Malkovich games at the time, but threads without diagrams seemed to be not affected. Location is northern Germany.
What about the server log files, did someone take a look at them by now?

It’s not only that thread. When trying to reply to this comment I had to wait for about 20 minutes until I no more got that old “The server does not respond at all. Try again a bit later.” message :cry:

Oddly, previewing this my comment goes very fast now.

And it definitely seems to be not just here in Germany—last night I wanted to link an L19 thread in Google+, and after I pasted the URL it never showed that thread’s information. Usually it show’s the info of a linked page pretty fast (before hitting “submit”!).

CnP · **#35**

From UK, I have been unable to access L19 for a couple of days (until just now). Also, the Tapatalk client couldn't access it either. Now everything seems to be okay (I was getting twitchy having no L19 fix)

I edited the post that may have been causing problems. Does anyone still experience it?

I just checked and the thread loaded instantaneously (on the same device as last night). Maybe give malky cat his own thread, and add diagrams until we can recreate the problem?

Now it loads fast for me too, regardless of device, with no after effects. Dang cat.

Good idea. I'll do it.

Not with that thread, but “liking” your comment, the one I’m replying to here, seemed to take an eternety. That other thread you vs. MW loaded fine a few minutes ago.

BTW, can you tell us what exactly you edited? ~~I’d like to try that, too.~~ Might be good to know what we should better avoid.

<edit>

And after submitting this reply, it again took eons to load the “submitted” page and to take me back to this thread :cry:
