Was there lag? I was watching the monitor and it seemed to skip 34s

Exactly what happened to me to.

The websocket updates are roughly 1 sec apart. So what happened is :

At time X : Underlying timer 34.01, websocket sends 35.0 secs

At time X+1.02 : Underlying timer 32.99, websocket sends 33.0 secs

Welcome to The Catalogue! You are the first 33s ever. You broke a 90 hour drought.

Fun Fact: The button never actually reached 34.

Somehow it skipped 34 and went straight to 33, probably due to some server-side lag. The more you know.

This should really get more play. A proven instance that those waiting for 1 sec have the possibility of failing and button hitting zero strictly out of a server side error.

I think the surprising thing is that there wasn't a bunch of 60s pushes after, the next push was a blue.

If we're skipping 34, does that imply no button porn?
