Topic: Why can't I play?

So I log on and post my two posts and go to the arcade.
I want to play the new game, Swirl Jong, however every time I click on the link my browser dies.
It only does this with games noone else has played yet or scored in.
Am I not holding my tongue right?

Lets see.



*edit* Works for me.. but then again, the score doesn't submit.

Do you get any error messages? What browser?

You are right the score doesn't submit....

Not in FireFox or IE....

Firefox crashed the 3 times I even tried to load a game... but seemed to only be on ones noone else had played yet.


*Edit* OK, so I got it to play and got a score of 10880 (Yeah good, even for me!) and it lost it... so now what?

I think you will probably find that the 'ones that nobody has played' are the ones that either crash the browser or don't allow score submission.

To quote myself at work: "It's a known issue...there's not really much we can do about it because the coding of the thing was done badly."

yeah but that doesn't help make it work!!!

And I know a little bit of coding too, I've designed a program from a book! (SO there! :P!)

Oh, to clarify: the arcade we are using is actually designed for another system, and is being fooled into thinking it is still running on that system.

Some games are actually coded for that, and look for files that don't exist here, so cannot ever work 100%.

:P pffft
Oh well, nevermind!
