So there I was, planning to play one of @griffpatch's online games with my friend, when suddenly, it said I was alone. I thought it was just a bug for that game, so I went to check another game. To my surprise, it was also not working. Please help me, someone!

The cloud variable servers have been unreliable for the past several months.

There's not much you can do but wait.

Cloud variables are currently broken, and all we can do is wait for them to be fixed.
Unfortunately, no one seems to know what's causing issues or when they will be fixed.
This affects everyone on Scratch, so the Scratch Team is aware of the situation.

I just started the griffpatch cloud tutorial and the tests dont work at all

Yep, this still applies. Unfortunately, the topic I linked in that post is closed, so there's not really a central place to discuss bugs like this anymore

Please remember to be polite on the forums. If you need to, feel free to take a short break and come back when you're less upset. (genuine)

usually, they will work. it also might be because it can't function properly if you:
1. Have too many tabs open
2. Have another tab, like a video running in the background
3. It might be working, and a new lobby was created.
4. A error might of disconnected.

My MOVO: Social Simulator is down because cloud variables don´t have a function
But I create a personal edition without cloud variables

There isn't an exact reason, sometimes they do work sometimes they don't.
