An outage that lasted through the weekend and continued into Tuesday originating at data provider STATS Perform significantly disrupted daily fantasy sports contests across multiple platforms and is still in the process of being resolved.
Platforms big and small reported delays for live in-game scoring throughout the weekend, which affected DFS contests starting Saturday for college football and continued into Sunday for NFL, MLB, and NASCAR contests. Many companies put out multiple tweets via their main Twitter feeds and customer service accounts alerting users to the outages and potential delays in live scoring and payouts, but that did not stop customers from venting their frustrations over the lack of statistical information and payouts.
Multiple requests for comment from STATS Perform, which is headquartered in Chicago, have yet to be answered. It has not posted anything on its Twitter account since Friday.
