API Scripter
I would expect the high volumes of users online at the same time on sundays could contribute to problems? (I play on monday nights GMT so no-one else is allowed to!). Remember that the API is still in development though so rest assured that the Devs and their elves are probably just as frustrated with its fluctuations as we are ;)
Hmmm...I didn't notice any system-wide issues today. Did anyone else experience problems?
Stops and starts constantly, that and the horrible lag cut our game short Saturday night. No errors, but scripts just don't work without restarting API. Only running 2 scripts and it still didn't work, thinking about giving up on the API.
I ran a game 7pm to midnight (CDT) Sunday with stellar API performance. Or, no I did not experience any problems. Saturday 5pm to midnight (CDT) I experienced API lag on occasion perhaps five or six times. Nothing would show then suddenly they would all show...
I find that it is always slower on the weekends. Often this past Sunday, I needed to reset my scripts because they would stop working. I simply attributed it to a higher usage rate since it was the weekend... I assume that as subscriptions go up, they are purchasing more resources. All in all, Roll 20 still gets an A+ from me.
My scripts have stopped working for about a week now. All of them. I have no errors to report as I have none. They just aren't working. Makes me sad as I'm paying for the service yet the service isn't working...... Kind of wanting a refund for the time.

What happens when you 'save' a script, so as to restart the API sandbox?
I'd like to report that my api call scripts stopped working mid session yesterday. They were working beforehand, but now any !command type thing in chat doesn't work. Weirdly enough with the on ready event, the API scripts report to the API console just fine.
Aaaaand again, on Sunday, they stop working again and kicking it with the 'Save Script' doesn't do anything again. Is this a known issue or is there a way to debug this for the devs?
As an update, my scripts (and thus the API) is working again for mysterious reasons. Any word on what's going on? My impression is that this issue has only impacted a fraction of the player base.
Same...my scripts are now working again. I made no changes. I'd really love to know how to debug this...
