I can finally enter the site after numerous numerous times today trying. But can't play any games. I can not get to my messages. I can not even read my own fellowships discussion board or some other discussion boards also. :(
I have called webtv technical support, they also tried accessing Brainking and were unable to.More then 1 technical person tried. They also told me that something in the coding in the games is making the pieces disappear. It is not compatible to webtv. We have no proxy cache I was told by them also. I hope that helps Fencer to maybe solve the problem for webtvers! :)

aparently webtv have tried to access the site and were not able to either. more than 1 webtv user have got them to try

Me too :-(

I miss my webtv friends :o(

just an odd glitch for you.. I click on logout, and it keeps taking me back to my main page !?

lol, I'd hate to have your hosting bill!!!

Fencer: 120 - 130GB of HTTP trafic, exclude mail trafic. ;-))))

I run about 10-15 on mine, but my sites very flash heavy and forums get alot of use.

Why should it be bad?

Ok, so it's not too bad.

wow ..I only managed 4GB on mine last month LMAO

About 120-130 GB a month.

Fencer, just a quick question. How much bandwith does this site use? I know the page views are out the roof, but the data can't be too high can it? 100GB month?

I've also posted a might be helpful tip on the Computers board that might help the webtvers out.

Thank you, I will add it.

Thanks Blue ;o)
I will pass it on.....

Fencer: Could that be added to the .info page as webTV users seem to be able to get there.

MM- It is to save emails & such.. That can slow you down a bit if it is too full with saved emails. Have the webtver go to storage & clean up the discarded emails & the sent emails also..
They may help a bit..They can also use the 'goto' to access the site..If the person has the site saved under a fav number tell them to get rid of it...then try accessing the site they also should turn unit off. unplug it from the wall for 10 seconds then replug it..then reconnect but hit 'Moved' then connect to the net. then try acessing the site.

Thats not a solution for many though :-)

I know! Buy everyone a PC, problem solved! ;o)

I am starting to be allergic to this damned device. It costs me days of optimizations without a possibility to test it on a real WebTV. Kind of neverending work with no visible end.

Blue: Whats the 'Storage Bin' on webTV used for ?

It has nothing to do with images.

Fencer the problem is not solved for webtv..
The pieces will not show up..Yes I played the game I can not access some discussion boards. I get an error message saying Brainking is too busy too use.
I have cleared my cookies.. I have also done a hard reset.. I cleared my cache numerous times.
Helpppppp!!! Thanx!! :)

I have goodfoods on Messenger, he can get to the Main page, but thats it. I have told him to do everything you told me to Fencer.

I've seen a WebTV user here [PrettyBlueEyes] playing a game and, if I am not mistaken, successfully making a move in the game.
So, is the problem solved? We've made a hard bypass over the former redirector, nobody should have it in a cache because it never existed before.

I have stopped the game time in order to prevent timeouts until WebTV problem is fixed.

now how considerate is that???? in the middle of all the problems time has been taken to do for WebTV users..that is a wonderful gesture and a great thing...Fencer .. you never cease to amaze :)

Please read http://BrainKing.info for new information about this WebTV problem.

Telepathically - now wouldn't that be good? lol I could imagine BK2 was up and running. :-)

I'm using a set box thingy at the moment. It takes a fortnight to load a page but at least it gets me here!

Youve managed to get further than many other webtv users :o( Hopefully Fencer can help you all back today :o) Ive missed a few friends tonight because they aint managed to get here :o(

or is it just his "laptop" that dont work and his "pc" does?

yeah....how did he post....or is he being an old woman again and forgetting where he is....Sorry Bumble...*jk*

i can't do anything either, i played 4 games today, and they took forever to load. i hope things will be better later on today.

Did you post telepathically then ? ;oÞ

I hope it will be sorted for you real quick, bumble! I cannot help you though.. Goodluck!

I did know what you meant matey :o)

I can't access brainking.com at all from my laptop. I don't even get to the log-in page - all I get is (IE) 'The page cannot be displayed (blah...blah...blah...)' notice.

I've dumped all temporary internet files and deleted all cookies but this hasn't made any difference. I can get to all other sites - it's just BK.
Maybe it's just coincidence but I haven't been able to access BK since it reverted back to BK1 (from BK2).

Help anyone? Please!

hAhA... Hi Steve!! You must have read it differently then what i meant.. I meant: hope he gets rid of all the bugs which are in 2.0!

Thanks, btw Steve: You just told me you were at BK.. 2 hours earlier I couldn't logon yet.. good to be able to logon at least and know about the status and HI to a couple of friends :-)

rofl :)

What makes you say there are only 2? LMAO ;oÞ

and Goodluck! with filtering and getting rid of all the 2.0 bugs ;o)

yes problems here were "500 internal error"

and ellie managed to get into Boiler Room by the looks of things :)

I just had the white screen of death for the last hour. anybody else have a problem?

i can only see my game sheet and this, i cannot open my msgs., and the only reply that works on here is to myself. i cannot play my games, i still have 4 days and more on all of mine. i have never had any problems here wit my web, this is a first for me, unplugging and emptying cookie does not help. if there's any news, please post it here, cause this seems to be the only one i can open, i can't open general chat. i'm going to try them all again now. thanks and have fun playing:( my games are piling up. yikes!

The person with WebTV is still having problems - How does a person on WebTV empty the cache?

They have tried to turn off/on the equipment a few times already.

Ive asked some more webtv players on GT that play here and it seems like none of them can access Brainking due to a "site too busy " notice

Well it sounds like there are multiply people on WebTV still having problems getting connected - it might be a good idea for Fencer to turn it off until we are sure these users are able to get back on.

when i saw bk2 and he said that, the red line was there. so would guess it is definately not disabled now

Yea, I did not see that line, but I remember Fencer saying time was turned off - so I thought I would ask.

You can still time out, because the red "time out disabled" line is not on main page
