When running our app we had two instances (different days) of games that would not end when the timer of the last stage reached 0. It tells the players it is waiting on a response from the server. Refreshing doesn't fix it.
This sort of error appears in the logs on galaxy:

The important part seems to be: MongoError: not master and slaveOk=false
Every time the error appears, it seems to be correlated to with the cluster undergoing an election (changing primary nodes).
I had a chat with MongoDB Atlas support and these elections can happen at anytime, but our apps should be resilient to them if they have certain things put into place. More info here: https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/resilient-application/
The two main things I took away from it (and confirmed from the support person) where:
Make sure you have ?retryWrites=true&w=majority at the end of your URI
Make sure you have the latest drivers
I don't know about the drivers with Meteor, should I update the mongo package?
mongo 1.10.1* Adaptor for using MongoDB and Minimongo over DDP
Maybe at one point this should be tested to see if the default package versions when creating an Empirica app should be updated.
