I imagine that's ore down to typical Betfair incompetence rather than the site crashing, Peter. Hopefully Shaun will be along shortly to tell us what a complicated and thankless task pressing a button is at Betfair towers and we shoulld just be grateful we have a roof over our heads.
That jibe on Shaun's getting quite repetitive!

Glass half empty or glass half full. Tbh I've got bigger things to worry about and for those that haven't, then I envy their situation. The day a Betfair problem registers on my shitometer I'll be a happy man.

If Shaun gets upset by that I'd imagine that'd be the least of his worries, seems you worry about it more than him, Derek.

I realise that, need somewhere to log the errors. Because Betfair, in general, don't.

It's snowflake culture Derek. Boo hoo my life isn't perfect and I'll cancel anyone with opposing opinions. Doesn't phase me much tbh. ;).

I wasn't worrying Shaun would be blubbing his eyes out. I was just saying it's well worn.

Thought I would show an interest in football more than just as a supporter of one team so am watching the Fulham/Arsenal game on Bf. Am puzzled that the Match Odds should be suspended for quite long periods (around 5 mins) but the other markets are still trading, why? How? Surely a goal or sending off or whatever is just as important to the over/unders markets and others as it is to the Match Odds.

That's puzzled me in my short time as a football trader. You would think it's just one button for all markets pertinent to the same match.

API sticky for me rn on both polling/streaming.
ping consistently low to non-bf destinations.
