At least it's not just me. I finally put my mouse over the spot where the character was supposed to be but still found it too frustrating to even finish level one.

Ok, I have a strange thing. I have been trying and trying to get back the high score on Crime Puzzle so on Monday night I finally got a score of 30,000 something that beat emrldsky score by over 4,000. Well the "send" button was not there. So I was unable to send the score. It is strange that the button just disappeared. Ever since then, ever time I get to the end of the game, the send button is not there. It has disappeared since I lost he high score.

I realize this might be just a glitch but thought I would ask.

Ok, must be my time to see things. I just played Boo and I got to 40 yet when I sent my score it said I had a 0. Everyone else had a 0 as well.
Anyone know what the problem is?

Boo is the perfect name for it!
It's one of the few games that does NOT ever keep score along with Chess and a few others.

I've officially played EVERY game in the arcade till it ended or I died. There are some interesting ones in there.

I don't think the send button is ever there when you finish the game--it's only there if you run out of time on the last level.

Hayalp! ( again, sorry!
)

I`ve been waiting ages for the Makos tourney and I got advanced but everytime I tried to play a blank black screen came up so now it says I scored a big fat 0 and no tries left


Is there any way to fix that or am I out?

I don't think there's anyway to fix that, Linny
Sorry!

Hmmm, now that's an odd one. I don't think anything can be done with that one either. There's a mod option to switch players, but I don't think it's functional. Brasil Slingo tourneys always have something weird happen

Would you guys want to see new games added? If so, how many, how often, till we reach how many?

Well, I think the ones that don't log scores could go away. Based on the stats for them they don't appear to be played as much as some others. From my ventures through the games BRIII: Gemini, 3D Chess, Boo & Sammy the Salmon appear to not keep score.

I'm still plenty entertained with what's there myself.

I am supposed to advance too...
I guess they can't fix it! I had PM'd Anne and that is what she told me.

Yeah, that's a weird one. I got disqualified because I didn't complete my games in the allotted time, but it wasn't for want of trying -- I had played 2 or 3, and then it wouldn't let me play any more. Imagine my surprise when not only was I booted out, but my opponent didn't even benefit from it!

Aw well, never mind.

I`d like to see new games
I think it keeps things interesting.
Is there a limit to how many games you can have? Maybe get rid of some of the least popular games that people don`t play?

I would love to see more games added!

I am having fun trying to play each game in the arcade.
I agree with what others have said about taking away the few games that don't keep score or work.
In their place add more fun games until you don't have room for any more!

Thanks for the list! It is helpful! I'll chuck out the ones that don't work and add more today. I guess we'll have to keep weeding out the bad ones from new additions too - glad we have so many testers!

part of a game's attraction for me is how you play it - arrow/space keys vs. mouse. i only play mouse games - the others are just too much trouble!

maybe some other solitaire versions? there's a really fun one called "3 shuffles & a draw". don't know if there's a freeware version out there.
