I'm not very knowledgeable on computer and programming stuff, so I'm not sure what's going on here. So if anyone could help me I'll appreciate it.

Also, sorry for the long post.
 
Try un-installing and re-installing.

Unless, of course, this is related to the fact that the Shoddy site is down, as are all the servers (where I am sitting, anyway).
 
It's the same for me, midnight. No servers show up, but I can still make teams. If un- then re-installing doesn't work, then make sure your computer will run it, unless it's worked before.
 
Yeah, same here. I just came here to see if it was just me.

Haven't anyof the mods alerted us as to whats wrong. Even the website shoddybattle.com is no longer there. (even from the smogon website)
 
I'm having the same problem. What's going on?
Shoddy was running fine and I left the server to change alts and when I tried to log back in, I got the same message as DreamWeaver.
 
The Shoddy Battle site is currently down, which includes the registry. Colin isn't online right now, but Smogon will work as best as it can to restore Shoddy to full functionality. If Shoddy does launch for you, you can connect to Smogon the way Korali suggested.
