So, I did the whole, backup my iPad, reset to factory, restore from backup and it works after a fashion. It will work for a while with a 50-90 second delay to login. At some point during the day it will stop working. White screen etc etc. IF I reboot and run Gamecenter immediately, it will work again for a while. Whenever it doesn't work, I reboot, (not hard reset) and it starts working again. Which is better than nothing. Hope this helps someone.

Really, is there no help available for this problem. I can't connect to my Game Center friends on my game. It takes forever for Game Center to even come up on my I-Pad Mini. I've turned my pad off and back on several times. I've already lost my downloaded ringtones, I'm afraid to back up my device again.

I really wish I had never updated this time.

The only fix I know of is to sign up for the beta of 9.1. As of now they are on beta 4. I have found it to be primarily stable, with only a couple apps out of the over 200 I have occasionally crash. They aren't even major apps, so I would recommend using the beta. Current estimates for the final release of 9.1 are for November, to launch with the iPad pro.

IF you want to sign up for the beta, you can at beta.apple.com.

I backed up the ipad, then reset all settings and finally restored the devise from the backup. I had the update 9.0.1 was installed before that process

unfortunately the status is the same, game center is still frozen

I'm thinking now to install the new update 9.0.2 or even try the beta 9.1

Any tips?!!!
