Subject: What Happened to the Arcade?

Written By: whistledog on 03/02/06 at 1:47 pm

In both Firefox and IE, when I click the arcade link, it basically just refreshes the main forum page.  Even when I click on my champion list, the pop up window opens with the forum in it.  Is the Arcade gone ... are all my scores gone?  :\'(

I get the same thing too except that I looked under my user profile and all 54 trophies and scores are still there - my guess is it is a temporary site/link problem.


I never thought to check my profile.  All my trophies are there too.  I hope it is a temp problem.  If I lost all my scores, I wouldn't be the same  :\'(

I almost broke my keyboard, broke my mouse and broke myself getting some of those scores  ;D

Wow...this is news to me. :o :o I have been staying away from the arcade the last day or so, mostly because it's gone slow for me on my browser. I'm also thinking of giving it up for Lent. :-\\ :-\\

Man, the first time I had a chance to go to the Arcade since I went away and now it is not working.  :\'( :\'( :\'(  At least I know it is not my computer.

On the plus side, I still have one trophy: Quix. That's better than none at all.

The arcade is working now, but not the high score pages. I just scored 1477 in Yeti Greece and have nothing to show for it.  :-[

I'm just not gonna play anything in there for now. :-\\ I mean, I enjoy playing the games and stuff, but if it won't let me register a high score on any game, I don't think I'll bother.

Everything should be fixed now, including the problems with the high scores.

I don't think so. I just played a couple of games and my scores (and one was a high score) didn't register.

I fixed it two minutes before I made that post.  so if it was during those two minutes, it might still have been broken.

Giving this thread a bumperino....it seems like the Arcade is gone now. :-\\ I click on the word "Arcade" and it takes me back to the main (index) page. In addition, all our championships have been removed from under our avatars. :-[

You've been banned from the Arcade because you already have too many championships



I'm only kidding ;D

I guess the Arcade is down while the boards are under maintenance.  Just when I got a spark to play Twin Sonice too.  I was already to break my old score

apparently it's a weird problem with membergroups, you belong to the website editors membergroup and it won't allow people who have that flag in.  For some reason the site that supports the arcade is down right now.  I'll have to wait until tomorrow to sort it out I think

I think I have fixed it.  There's two seperate locations in my admin section where the arcade permissions are controlled.  One is within the arcade functions, the other is a set of arcade settings hidden within the normal permissioning system.  I didn't know about the later ones, which control member group permissions for moderators and other special roles.

Everyone who should be able to see the arcade, should be able to see it now.
