Sometimes the Twitch API's streams endpoint can return someone as offline, even if they are online. They also cache the data on their end, so you can't simply do 2 queries in a row. This means the bot sometimes attempts to host on a channel that is currently online.
The best solution I can think to this is to check the API, wait 1 minute, then check it again and combine the results. Maybe the check needs to be even longer?
