now I remember Gold token..senile moment, I guess..thanks

GT is Goldtoken:

:-)

what and where is GT games?

I've tried all of that, nothing helps

What about the size option in new game?

Is anyone having trouble with the 5 in a line game having two different size grids? Part of mine are square and the other half is rectangular.

for regular go-moku (which this is essentially the same) i have never played on a board bigger than 13x13. They use that at IYT...i have played approximately 200 games of that and 2 of them have filled up, both agaginst the same person (lol). 15x15 would certainly be big enough though imo!

Would 15x15 be acceptable?

Have you ever installed the smaller boards for this game..? (five in line) I too have an old Classic WebTv and YES, with smaller boards, classic webbers shouldn't have any problem with playing this game and I really WOULD like to play.. Besides, I have never seen anyone fill up a board of that size.. People I've talked to say the same thing........... A~n~y~w~a~y.....
Have you or will you make smaller boards..? PLEASE!!!!

KATHYR, two ways you can do that.. 1st, if you haven't played any or only a couple times, you can just DELETE it or ask your opponent to DELETE it fore you and just explain your reason.. 2nd, you can just let TIME run out for you to take your turn and it should DELETE itself.. (hope you don't have a lot of days put on it.. lol) If you have played more than a couple turns apiece on it, someone will lose the game instead of just being DELETED where no one wins or loses.. :-))

i DIDNOT ask to play five in line becouse my web unit will not give me a full screen for that game. I WANT TO BE REMOVED FROM THAT GAME. PLEASE!

i do get upgrades, i think it's the old classics that have the problems, my husband is on web also, and his is newer, my husband got page too big on a disney pin site, that's the only time. i guess we are lucky. i play at gt. and iyt and they're fine.
ellie.

plus upgrades....classic dont...this is one reason why all webbers should purchased a plus...
classic's are going to be obsolete....
since I got my last yr...I wouldnt consider anyone to stick with a classic...plus gives you more cache and they recieve upgrades . (yearly) . while classic' cant...and for the page too big I havent experience this since I went to web plus..

I failed to mention that getting the page too big does not happen all the time, it seems i read somewhere another factor that makes it happen is your connection rate. Ellieoop, you mean you never once got page too big on your classic? If not consider yourself very lucky. I just know thru my experience and what i have read in discussion boards of tons of people complaining of the page too big problem with classics.

Kevin: It happenes to me too but only with Netscape 7.0. When I use Internet Explorer, everything's okay. It seems to be a Mozilla bug, I would guess.

i have a 3 yr. old webtv classic, and i play on all the gamesites and have no problems here or at the others.

I read somewhere a while ago about some columns becoming wider in this game. It does it to me occasionally when the page first loads, but when i click my move it fixes itself (at least it has everytime so far).

You're welcome o great one. :o)

Thanks Gamester. Now I know what to say all WebTV users who still bombard me with e-mails :-)

The problem with the classic units is that they have a small cache, once you surf a little it fills up and the problem arises that you will get the message page too big to be shown in its entirety. As i said they are notorious about it and my old classic drove me nuts with it. The plus has more memory/cache and very rarely will the problem arise, i've had my plus for two years and i only got page too big once and that was only because i was on a site with a ton of graphics. I feel the pain of the classic users and its not your sites fault with the problem they are having, basically there is nothing that can be done.

That's intersting. What is the difference between a classic unit and the plus? I would like to write a new FAQ issue about that but I cannot test it since I don't have WebTV, could you help me with that?

I am on webtv and have no problems whatsoever, i think they trouble may be that you are using a classic unit and they are notorious about having pages too big on a lot of sites. Thats why i got the plus and never had any trouble since. For me five in line is just right..

hrlqns: About Tank Battle, have you tried to set smaller pieces? [Settings / Tank Battle]

Actually, I agree, its not only NTL, I have a very old PC, screen size 640x480 and I cant get the full board, same with Tank Battle.

Thanks very much....

AnfieldSouth: Sure, go to Settings / Five in Line page and change the pieces :-)

Fencer is it possible to change the noughts and crosses for differently coloured pieces? It gets more difficult to identify where the pieces are positioned once there is a large group of them.

NTL only..? "N~O~T"... sorry Fencer, but I have a web-tv and I also have problems with the 5-in-line game as well (saying ..to big to be seen completely)

It seems to be too big for NTL only.

Why does the board say thats to big?

I prepare more tests to find out why it doesn't work with NTL and similar devices. Please be patient :-)

Yes ..I wish it would play on my Set-Top-Box.

This is good game!
