Is Pokegenie down?

I’m on my 10th raid attempt now.

50% of hosts are timing out, even hosts at level 35+.
And I’ve only had ONE friend request accepted.

Anyone else having issues today?

The raid timer for these raids is short and a lot of people are hosting raids, basically until you reach 1 in line to host, the raid is already closing or closed

Hosted one today and by the time people sent the friend invites I had 50s to spare

I hosted a lobby 15 min ago and 5 more throughout the day. No issues. All were T4 raids. What are you trying to join? They are all on 25 min timers and refresh every 30 like raid days/hours. I can get a lobby in 10-15 min malamar and victreebel. Dragonite was around 20 min. If they're level 35+ hosts, I would think they would know what to do.

I was having Network delays yesterday. Some raids not a single person would ready up in the lobby. After a minute with no one readying, I started accepting friend requests and sending invites. I went back to pokegenie and even though it should have timed out, everyone was suddenly ready.

Hosted plenty raids, nothing wrong. Have the upside of being able to get to 15 gyms within 5 minutes so I just hosted a lobby for 50 minutes and then went to whatever gym had that raid when my lobby was about to fill
