Siesta

Siestas are events initiated by the Umpires during moments of peak viewership in which the fan experience may be sub-optimal (this is not the result of The Commissioner, as they are doing a great job).

For the fans, the games are not visible during a Siesta, with some viewers likening the experience to a site being "offline". Despite the lack of visibility, games and bets will still continue as scheduled, although there may be some errors in the process.

At the official recommendation of the Umpires, viewers during a Siesta should eat snacks (it is currently unconfirmed if Peanuts are eligible) and speak in whispers, as They are sleeping.

As a Siesta ends, the games become visible again, and the Umpires may confirm that the machines have been made bigger. It is highly advised to stop eating snacks once this has happened.
