Games Arcade now open!

[Joanna]

Thanks, Michael. I regularly clear out my cookies, though, so, er...

[Booth]

I've no idea. No problems at this end. I don't ever get logged out unless I do it on purpose. What browser are you using?

For the record I'm using Firefox.

 

[Joanna]

I'm on Firefox too.

I've noticed this for a while. If I'm logged in and, say, leave the screen idle for a while (can't remember how many minutes it does it after!), then I get a screen come up asking for my log-in details again. It's odd, though, as when I'm doing a thread reply/PM and I've left what I'm doing for a bit and then am asked to sign in again when I click to preview, I don't lose anything I've typed, with the text just going straight into its preview form as if I'd never got logged out in the first place!

I've been having some internet connection probs recently , which would explain why sometimes I'm being logged out (so I'm obviously being logged out when my connection cuts out!), but I'm sure it's been happening when my connection is stable too....unless my pesky memory is playing tricks on me, that is!

And *sobs* it's only on PSF that this happens...

[Booth]

It shouldn't even log out even if you lose your connection. Anyway I'm off out now to have a few drinks with the in-laws.

And then perhaps off to a nightclub after...

 

[Joanna]

Yeah, it shouldn't, as the cookies haven't been deleted! Grrr!! Thanks for the help, anyway , and enjoy your drinks with the In-Laws....and those other 'drinks' too.....

xx Joanna xx

EDIT: My mind the prankster ...it's not actually logging me out when my connection cuts, but yet for a moment I imagined that it did....

 

[Joanna]

Mahjong....ARRGGH, I've cleared all the tiles...completed it in the quickest time....got a bonus...and I'm still in second place! LOL!!

The games are great!!! The perfect to-do thing for insomniacs like me. I've been having an absolute ball all night.

Might be adding another feature soon. Forum pets, so you can create a pet and look after it and buy stuff for it. Like a cyberpet but cooler. And you will be able to let your pets fight other members pets for forum credits. And every time you post you get credits too. Leaderboards for the toughest pets too. What do you think?

 

[Joanna]

? And what do credits make, Michael.....

xx Joanna xx

EDIT: Is anybody else having trouble with Magic Ball freezing on them, so when it does you can move left to right but you can't move the balls up and down?

 

[Booth]

Not them kind of credits, I mean the websitey kind

 

[LovelyLaura]

oooh, loving the idea of having our own forum pets! Sounds really cool!

Although it might make me even more addicted to this place than ever! I have been in the arcade all weekend, it's terrible! And I have a feeling that I might be sneaking into the arcade at work tomorrow too, eek!!

 

[Joanna]

You'll never get the hang of my winking, will you, Michael?

Arcade games *looks at the time* ...and now a forum pet to call my very own....if I so choose ....All we need now are numbers instead of our usernames! Ooh, bouncy white ball.....

[Booth]

We're just looking after you

Ps, the petz are up there now as is the plaza system. Haven't had chance to properly check it all out as I've been working on something else while that's been being set up. It seems fine though, we just need to add some items to the shops and then you can feed your pets. Creating pets shouldn't be a problem though.

You get forum points by posting, rating, viewing, winning arcade trophies. Pretty much everything you do on here you get points for. And those points you can spend on things in the plaza and for the petz, so enjoy

Well, I've only played one game so far. I've never played a computer game before, I didn't realise that they don't give you any rules. So I've been trying to work the darn thing out! Slowly.

I'm only saying a reluctant thanks to this one, as I'll get even more behind with the rest of my "to do" list now!

Thought my 77 out of 80 on Parachute Panic was safe for at least a while, so

79, Birty ....79?! Well done, Birty; that's a brill score!



Btw, Michael, I really do appreciate the efforts you're making to make PSF even fabber than it already is, what with the (very addictive!! ) arcade and now forum pets. Thank you!

Now, let's weigh this up....Forum pets....sleep? Sleep....forum pets? I'll see!

xx Joanna xx

 

[Booth]

Forum petz don't take 'that' much caring for

 

[Joanna]

But what if they're not the only thing on PSF you are 'caring for' (79, Birty? )?

xx Joanna xx

 

[Booth]

I think I'm going to have to bribe someone to create a pet.

Okay so whichever member first creates a pet and sends me a pm with the name of their pet gets 1000 points.

First VIP member to do so gets 800 points.

 

[Joanna]

ARRGGHHH NOOOOOOOO, I got 80 on Parachute Panic , which beat Birty's top score .....but at the end of the game it just congratulated me, with my score somehow not getting added to the leaderboard! Help!

xx Joanna xx

EDIT: ARRGGHHH, I've got 80 again but it's not got added to the leaderboard! It appears to only be excepting scores other than the top one of 80. Any ideas, Michael?
