Is anyone else having to wait longer than normal for the ludo board to load? I'm on super fast highspeed Cable, fast machine, cleared cache, got rid of the chess background image on the site, stopped java script, stopped daily tips, pretty much minimized to the bare minial needed to play here and still ludo takes for ever to load. Every other game I play I have no problem with load speed. The ludo board takes ages to appear and a white box shows for a long while where each piece is located on the board. Tap, tap, tap, tap, then the board finally loads! FYI (It is slow in IE and Netscape 7 - no difference in load time)
Please don't tell me I am the only one experiencing this?
Rose: I don't have those problems... Maybe you should NOT clear your cache - the Ludo Board consists of many (different) and not too small images, and if you don't cache them you have to reload them everytime you build up a Ludo page. After clearing my cache it takes longer for me too.
Mr. Shumway: I should reiterate that I dont clear the cache every time. As an experiment I did clear it. Nothing I do helps. I don't understand why I seem to be the only one with this problem. I'm on really good machine, a P4, 1.8GHz, 1 gig ram. I racking my brain on why that one board loads so darn slow for just me! I posted it here instead of on the 'puters board to see if anyone else was experiencing this as well. Guess I will take it to the puter board is no one else replies.
Rose: It's slower for me too, but not so much that it is a problem. Fortunately the board is only loaded twice (or only once if you pass) per move in this game.
Rose: It takes about 2 to 5 secounds to load for me. Which is really long compared to all the other games. I also am on high speed internet(800KB/s) and running a P4 3.2GHz machine with a Gig of RAM. Using google web accelerator it use to be instint however I found that screwed with Brainking so I have uninstalled it.
