Same issue on my side, thanks for raising the problem Finally.
Full request example not working:
https://api.torn.com/user/2447082?selections=personalstats,profile&key=xxx

is anyone going to tells us whats going on

I can't run any of my apps as they all rely on the user profile API
if you working on competition status which was working fine last year
remove it put back the old working version and fix whatever you are doing on an external port/PC/server what ever

There's also a high average and p90 latency with the average increasing by between 300% and 1500% and the p90 increasing by between 700% and 3600% (from around 0.4 seconds to between 3 seconds and 15 seconds).

Its so irritating as Tornstats/yata/pda even torntools rely on the stupid API key. I even deleted my old one thinking that was problem but new key still does same issues and when i do api test it works perfectly but not within the other apps. Sigh... we seriously need this fixed...

API is actually really awesome, and the key system works well !
It's just that when the API is broken, like right now, it would be great to have official statement, like an update in the top ribbon, exactly like when Torn is under an outage. It has been more than 6 hours now.

Also, an official statement on the forum, like "we know there's an issue and we are working on it" would be welcome too.

It's normal that some regressions happen sometimes.
One could still be wondering why the change (because I'm 99% sure it's because of Eliminations) hasn't been tested more, to avoid such issues. It seems like competitions (last dog tags for example) are risky updates and would require more testing.
