| | Hi, I'm new. I am looking at the sportsdb for retrieving live scores across NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA basketball, and NCAA football. What should my expectations be as far as the availability of live scores? Are they widely available for all games, or is it just luck of the draw as to whether live scores will be available depending on if any user is updating them? If not live scores, I would need at least the result of the game shortly after the game ends, but I suspect that won't be any more available than the live scores. Appreciate any insight you can offer as I get started with this. Thanks

| | Live score is not great, especially with the sports you're looking for. Scores and status codes take a long time to correctly update.

Livescores update every 1min on our backend and that should translate into minimum 2mins delay on the premium API level. But there are a few reports recently of it taking longer or not working. I am unsure why, or what specific sports have issues, but I'm guessing American based ones.
If you have any examples that would be incredibly useful. Some sports may have issues past midnight UTC, but again I need examples to fix anything.
I've been monitoring GMT time sports and there has been no issue with soccer that I can see.
