    Have every faction member use an SED. I hear this is effective in resolving unintended game features.

    We just lost our chain at 6700 because of this - is it possible to have it reinstated? Our chain bar was displaying 4 minutes left on the timer when the chain died meaning no one hit.

Basically the chain counter lags and you have to keep refreshing browser all the time. As you can see the from the printscreen the chain counter is at 1,011 and Live chain counter is at 1,019. This is happening for few members in the faction.

confirm same issue....additionally, losses arent registering on the chain drop down, but are on the attacking tab at bottom of page.

For me it happens when faction tab is not active. Then I come back to the faction tab and sidebar data is being updated. Do you have the same issue?

You can't expect parts of Torn to help you chain. You need to keep an internal (deep inside of you, if you know what I mean) log of the chain timer. That's what we got told when API went to shit...

Jokes aside, both cases are bullshit. How is it a players fault if a part of Torn messes up, be it one page vs another or the API.
Proxima [1879587] Wiki Editor · #18

API (I feel) is a little different as you're relying on an externally built and maintained (doctorn etc) application or extension to assist you while you had the sidebar (which is the only thing implemented by torn itself to tell you when a chain is dying) still working. 

In our case that one thing that was supposed to be relied upon failed.

Okay so I've been chain sitting all day so i've been testing out the timer. It only fails if I'm sitting looking at the faction page, not clicking anything or navigating to other tabs, when an attack happens. I've had others in my faction try as well and they're having the same results as myself. 

If i go to another tab and back, it goes back to normal
