"Connection lost"
Getting this error a lot of times which is really disturbing. It should be fixed so that the players should not get irritated while playing.
That usually only happens if the server is restarting, and then it goes away. When was it happening to you? During a certain action or no? How many times did it happen?
The most I've had it happen is 3 times in a row and then I refreshed and it was gone.
I will keep looking at connection issues. These affect a small fraction of users, but still this means something is wrong. Right now it seems that the most common issues are caused by internet providers. I can keep my browsers open literally for hours without a single iterrupt at locations with stable connection. Poor uplink, strange network policies (e.g. not allowing long-lasting open connections), network reconfiguration (IP change) are most common sources of connection issue.
Anyway, be asured this is a priority issue.

Hey ethan,
Just to know, and it will be answered once and for all on the thread. Are VPN connexions allowed on the site?
I have some sites on which I can't play because of location but VPN... Takes care of this problem.
Thought it would be good to state your opinion on the use of VPN on Yolodice
We are not blocking VPNs or Tor, nor have any special policy against VPNs nor Tor. The only consequences of using a VPN is that you might accidentally share an IP address with other users, which could result in:
* your faucet request count might be limited (we count them by IP too)
* you might experience delays on some requests, e.g. when posting to chat (but you would feel it only if there are really dozens of people from the same IP)
* you might not be included in chat rains since only one user per IP is rained when someone enters e.g. "/rain 10 0.1"
* mods will know you share an IP with other people from chat
But these are just standard anti-abuse protections, you should not be affected by them unless there are really many players from the same IP.
Cheers,
Ethan
We want to share with our community, but since YD is so new it's hard to fund massive giveaways like some other established sites do. However, we will happily do more as the site grows!
