Sultanpepa Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I've noticed that Tuesdays are particularly bad for data updates. Sometimes there's no update at all. I wonder why that is? Just curious. Is it the button pushers day off do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Morgan Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Thank God its not just me. Thought for some reason I didn't even have one view! That would be horrifying. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDoug Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I asked a friend in Kerala who's pretty sure there's no holiday there today. Glad to know it isn't just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph Clemson Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'd come to the conclusion that Alamy's database is being administered by a little known sect whose holy day is Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sultanpepa Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 The last three Tuesday's have been the same. It might even be longer than that but that's when I started to notice. I like Joseph's conclusion though. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdh Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 same for me, I do not remember if its always tuesdays, but there have been odd days where at lunchtime the update was not done yet. Being an IT guy, I lack understanding why this is not an automated process that runs just past midnight, no human intervention should be necessary to update the stats. Today my stats updated 17:05 GMT - just some 30 mins ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
