Is everyone getting the new nightly  game post  by 9pm EST (your time zone)? I’ve been trying to work the posting time out to deal with WordPress’s way of federation. Some get it starting at 8:53pm est.  FYI, you can’t tell by looking at the posting time of previous game plays. If you recall you are seeing it before 9pm, you’re instance is set to get it best it can. Let @paul know if it is coming to your instance after 9PM. Thanks!

  1. @hashtaggames @paul I've seen it arrive a couple of minutes before or after 9 PM US ET on my person instance.

      Same. I usually see someone else posting, click on the tag & then see this post, but often it doesn't show up in my TL until a bit later.

  2. @hashtaggames @paul Works for me, but then again, I'm in EST and live pretty close to you.

    1. @JensHannemann I think, but not certain, WordPress federates in batches plus server slows down due to the extra work at that time. I have robust cacheing setup to speed it along.

    Hi, I mentioned this last night but I see it around 5 minutes before the hour on this Vivaldi server.

    I have been receiving them! I haven't been able to play lately, which makes me a bit sad, but work is work.

    Thanks again for doing all this, much appreciated!

  5. @hashtaggames @paul

    Yep. At 8:55-ish the last two nights.

  6. @hashtaggames @paul

    Not always. Either last night or the night before it showed up 9 minutes late, and that wasn't the first time.

  7. @hashtaggames @paul To be honest, I've stopped getting the notice. I've just been hunting up the tag from players around the drop.

  8. @hashtaggames @paul I don't know exactly when the game promo drops since my laptop insists on constantly being a few minutes late, but of late I've noticed one or two game posts preceeding the promo in the hashtag's feed.

    I think one time you posted details about a potential delay, but that showed up a few posts after the promo.

  9. @hashtaggames @paul

    I was watching for it from 8:50-9:00, but it never came on my feed. I had to click a player's hashtag to find it.

  10. @paul @hashtaggames I think so?
