What did happen, that now we can't even create a new game?

And really games coudn't be finished?

I don't understand why the games were suddenly terminated.

Well, if something breaks, it breaks, and doesnt wait for you to finish a game. If your device is out of power, it also shuts down immediately, and there also was kind of a warning here one month ago, just that there was noone found to do something about it.

As I understand it, it‘s nothing that really was in BGAs hand, and applying a major php upgrade understandably cant wait for a hand full of of games to finish, that would be impossible to handle and an infinite loop with no gain.

Correct. This php migration was announced months ago, but nobody has appeared for these games yet (I won't either).

There are plenty of solutions, but the BGA did nothing.

You could have blocked the creation of games earlier, you could have sent a warning earlier, and none of it was legible so that I would have expected any of it. And yet one could have written a few days earlier that they would be terminated that day.
