Script exits when Cloudflare blocks too many attempts

Open MSDNAndi opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Script exits without recovering or retrying when Cloudflare blocks too many requests... see copy/paste of error below (I edit my IP address and the Cloudflare ID in the response).

There have been too many recent activation attempts from this account or Internet address. Please wait and try your product code again later. Redeemed Yuppie Psycho to go away (takes an hour after first key insert)

For context, I had hundreds of unrevealed keys, I also have a symmetric gigabit tier connection. May need something to limit the rate you are hitting HumbleBundle with, and retries in some more places when hitting potentially transient errors.
