Sujet: Tournaments for non-members....

Fencer....just wondering exactly how the tournament games work for us non-members. I did notice that when I finished a game with someone that I couldn't start a new Non-tournament game. LOL I was afraid there was a mistake or something when the tourny games started. I played as quickly as I could with whoever was on line at that moment afraid that I would get in the middle of a good game only to find out it was a gliche. ROFLOL I've never been in a tournament game before but I absolutely LOVE the games and the people...win or lose! Do we have to wait to start normal games with others until our numbers are below 20? Thanks in advance. ;)

Ok....another quick question....I just had another tournament game pop up today. LOL I had a game that was finished and then this one popped up. Will the tournament games override all the other games after we are finished with them or are there just so many tournament games that we can play at one time? I'm not complaining....just confused. LOL

Mom: Yes, it is a drawback of non-paying members. And tournament games don't override normal games, this is just a special situation for this first tournament only. Shortly, everybody could join a tournament although lots of players didn't have enough empty slots. But there will be some restriction check on next tournaments. I have to think it over.

Fencer.....thanks for clearing things up for me. I think it was great that you gave non-members a taste of what their missing. I wasn't sure if I would like having more than 20 but I really am enjoying it. :) I think it gives non-members who are playing their limit of 20 a chance to see if they are even going to like playing more games. Oh yeah.....and you have really been working hard and doing a great job fixing the problems here. It shouldn't be long and maybe you can have a rest. LOL

Sujet: Re: Site Down

Yes, I had the same problem, I thought I'd messed the PC up with messing about trying to change the font size!! Which, by the way FENCER.. I hold you completely responsible. If the site wasn't so addictive I wouldn't be falling asleep at the keyboard and messing the font size up in the first place!! LMAO!! It took me ages to remember there were other sites on the internet I could try just to be sure it wasn't the PC at fault!!

Theres a link off this page for a free trial of Norton anti-virus, I downloaded it but it won't open. Has anyone else had a problem with this?

9. Janvier 2003, 19:36:31

Tony: Monthly, for the beginning.
About site down yesterday - there was a non-planned malfunction of our server-housing provider and we did not know about that because it happened during night [of our time zone]. I apologize for that.

9. Janvier 2003, 19:36:58

Are you saying its a virus causing the sites to be down? For so many of us?

9. Janvier 2003, 19:39:40

No! Our server cannot be attacked by a virus, it doesn't run under Windows :-) There was some general hardware problem with the connection abroad.

9. Janvier 2003, 19:42:50

I thought Silkwood meant it was a virus on our PC's that was preventing us from entering some sites. Not that you had a virus here Fencer! :o)

9. Janvier 2003, 19:44:48

Oh, sure :-) Sorry, I'm a little tired, I was finishing Backgammon etc.
About GT, I've just tried to log in and it really shows that their database is down. Strange.
