We felt that many players were experiencing performance issues, so hopefully, this helps. We have also been chasing many bugs that have been difficult to replicate, as they are error states that we have not seen on our end. Specifically, we have been working on the “End of Day” bug, and we have done many corrections and improvements that we think might fix some of the issues, but we are still trying to get to the bottom of it, so please let us know if issues persist.
