Just reached the arcade final against slatty & was 1-0 up & looking good to win 2-0, when, after threatening to do so many times, my internet connection went down...but only on this site..
Any other tab i had open stayed connected fine so i know it's not my internet connection!

It turns out neither of us won the torni points & were awarded 128 each for reaching the final but i think this is shocking tbf...plus i lost 6 or 7 points off my rank which is rather annoying & i feel i've just wasted an hour or so of my time getting to the final & having barely anything to show for it!

Any answers to this ever recurring (& more & more frequently) problem will be greatly received...If there's going to be trouble whilst the problem gets sorted i'd like to know about it so i don't waste any more of my time please!!

We've actually had 2 distinct problems over the last few days. The first were problems caused by the database (I'm about 90% sure). So today I performed a restart including the database (this is the first database restart for about a year). In any case, I am keeping an eye on this but it seems resolved.

Additionally today there have been intermittent network problems over the last couple of hours.

Apologies for the problems.

I see server was down tonight.
To be fair, the premierleague server is down too- I can't make a fantasy team lol. So let's not be too harsh on funky.

Whilst I appreciate dgen quoting Nick.
It does seem to be happening more and more frequently.

Whilst I am one of the last to knock Funky a mere apology seems somewhat useless, as I am finding in-between every post I am getting " cannot find this page try a cached version"

I have tried several different browsers now


I think time has come to find something more reliable !!

I'm sure that people who know about websites will baffle me with science, however as an end user of a product all I want is it to work. In all honesty I am not interested why it doesn't. The fact that it doesn't is just off putting and I feel doesn't give the professional edge that Funky has always had.
Funky used to be the site to be on, now it's the site people will go on if they can !

Look at the FB page people complaining about Funky and it's reliability - need I say more ?

Edit: to tidy up

Agree with g_k.
At least this is fixed after a couple of hours usually. I (and a couple of my friends) still can't get into the premierleague server....

The good thing for Nick tho, no matter how much the site goes down the same people will still keep logging in whenever they can and more and more people are signing up all the time so there will never be a loss really.

Most of time it's fine for me, just the odd time when i can't get on. I'm sure Nick is trying his best to get it sorted out, not much more he can do i guess.

^ true

all nick can do at the moment if it gets any worse is to have a word with whoever is hosting the site to see whats happening and then change if needed.

just have to play the waiting and patience game

It has to be said that there are a lot more problems lately ... mainly failing to connect completely or taking ages and the page formatting going up the Swanny.

As for getting logged out due to a failed connection whilst in game, that only ever seems to happen if I'm winning ..... so very rare really

Duke lets face it you were going to bottle it....

And as I recall I made a frame winning break before you cutout in the 2nd frame.

That being said... both of us got chucked out the tournament, we both got DQ's
