There were a couple of instances during the week where bets went unplaced, but as I wasn't around & my bot clears the errors, I couldn't be sure what had happened.
My understanding is that api_errors are strictly a problem at BF's end & as nothing has changed in my environment, that's what I am going with.
Hard enough to win at this game as it is - tell ya I might have gone postal if I wasn't around to get those bets on today as it would have turned a nice steady profitable day into a frustratingly unnecessary & undeserved losing one, considering the commission I pay these ********ers & all.

I write my own bots so it would be interesting to see the cause behind the API ERROR message. There is always an error description that comes across with it but perhaps BA is choosing not to show it.
There is also the problem of which API version are you using vs mine. I admit mine is older and not the latest version so perhaps mine was fine but yours was not. FYI I am using ver 4 and I think they are up to version 7. I keep meaning to rewrite it but haven't had time. I'll be screwed the day they disable my version.
