I can't be the only one suffering from lack of servers

[Brucifer]

My access to other web sites is fast as ever. Dominion can take a minute just to load the game, and then fails to load images, leading to a partial user interface throughout the game, or just loads images really slowly. Often it disconnects, and then seems to chide me, offering the chance to disconnect and resign, as if its problems were my fault.

Slow or not loading pictures seem to happen very sporadically but may of course depend on usage times and location in the world. The developer has created a test server that tries to address the issue: https://webserver.dominion-online.com/

The message that it has detected a disconnect is inform the player, in case the reason is on their end (which it isn't for you).

So tonight, it's the Websocket server not answering. On the JavaScript console, I see:

connection.js:14 WebSocket connection to 'wss://metaserver-new.dominion-online.com/'; failed
failed:

Traceroute says I'm getting three hops out of Comcast's network and not reaching the host.

That last address is in Amazon Web Services, so naively I guess there's something wrong with your AWS server tonight.
