I think it is hackers, most likely @veryrelteacher and his/her alts.

Hackers can't really do that with the cloud variables. At best they can change the variables or add 100 players or something.
The reason cloud variables go down every year might be because scratch is deleting requests that are too old to be stored anymore, or maybe overload like you said.

Hope I helped

The hackers likely caused the cloud variables to be disabled, so they technically can do that.

Then use turbowarp, their cloud variables are not the same as scratch's.

Turbowarp, a scratch mod cloud variables aren't connected to scratch's. This means you can play with users on turbowarp (But a downside is people can change their usernames)

Well apparently hackers found a way to see inside without turning off cloud vars. This meant that cloud games would no longer be fair as people would be kicked out and for high scores people could set them to whatever.

Scratch team turned them off to fix it and they are now back on!

thefarsidecalendar

they're down for me too

I had just started to develop a online test and now it won't work.
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1214638319/
Can someone look at the code and verify I did it right?

NitroPhantom

I think it is because the online variables are down.

Wonder when they'll be back up, kinda need them to work for some of my stuff.

Scratchattach allows you to edit the cloud variables of any project even If you don't own it.

Could you check this to make sure it works? Thank you so much!

I'm experiencing the same issue across every project. It could be because of too many requests to the scratch servers or memory overstack, but I'm unsure. Though I did hear about “cloud variables hackers”, but saw none recently. This is the first time I've seen this outage.

Maybe they're adding letters to cloud variables. If they do chats will be the next new thing!!!

They have said that chats are not allowed, and would get removed. You could make a chat at any time by using a simple number to letter matrix.
