    Wassupski peeps,

    I am happy to report that I've managed to get the Arcade up and running again, so it is now open for all you Game-a-holics!

    Unfortunately, the previous version of Albratross Overload got removed so the high score for that no longer exists, but I was able to replace it with another version of the game (albeit with a slightly different name) which currently doesn't have a high score, so if you hurry then you should have the chance to be the champion of it. :wink:

    Besides Albatross Overload, no other games or high scores have been affected. Everything should be working again, but please let me know if any problems pop up as I haven't had chance to double check everything. :slight_smile:

    Happy gaming!

    Martin.

    For almost two years, there's only been two of us in the 1,000,000+ points Tetris club (me and Victor). I challenge someone to come join us.

    Thanks Martin!

    Yay, procrastination revision break!

    Bloody Pingu score submission's not working. And the leader-board doesn't take account of users who've changed their name (notice it with mine).

    Wassupski,

    I noticed we had 49 games in the Arcade, so I've rounded it up to a nice even 50 by installing our newest game, Bubble Witch.

    Enjoyyy. :slight_smile:

    Also fixed this. I had to replace the version of Bloody Pingu for a newer file, so sadly the high scores etc are goneee. :frowning2:

    I don't know if it is just me... but is seems that the helicopter game is not recording scores correctly.

    Ah, sorry about that. I misplaced the gamedata folder in the Helicopter file, which is why any new scores weren't getting saved.

    I've uploaded the missing folder to the Arcade so it should be saving scores now. :slight_smile:

    A lot of the yeti/penguin games seem to not load for me. Hangaroo is showing some kind of error thing for me also.

    Just to record that when playing a tournament game for Bubblewhich, the game didn't load and has recorded my score as 0. When playing the game normally, it does load normally.

    I've just given you my place in that tournament so that you can have another attempt and see whether it submits a score of 0 a second time? It may just be one of the main glitches in the Arcade, or may be a problem related to that specific game and how compatible it is with tournaments.

    If you can have another attempt at it when you get chance and let me know whether it submits the score then i'll go from there and see what the problem is. It may just be it's one of the couple of games that just doesn't like tournaments. >.<

    I just played my spot on the tournament and it worked just fine for me.
