Making a huge gaming service available 24/24 hours, everyday of the year is not an easy task, especially when you consider that a "short" 5 minutes service interruption breaks almost all realtime games in progress ...
Each time there is an incident on BGA, we try to be as transparent as possible, explaining you what happened and what we did to make sure this won't happened. We also cancel all "leaving game" penalties applied because of the incident.
Recently, we decided to go one step further and give you a more detailed view of the status of the BGA server.
This graph shows you, anytime, the number of moves played in the platform. We chose to use number of moves instead of something more "technical" because everyone knows what is a move, and because if the number of moves played on BGA is not decreasing, it means that (almost) all players on BGA can play, so it means that the service is normal (at normal speed).
Do not forget that in case you have difficulties to play on BGA and the service is normal, you can use the following page to see what is wrong :

Enjoy!
P-S: Two other new little features arrived today on BGA
We will be back to you about that as soon as we are 100% sure they are working properly.
