Okay, I just tried to open one of my postal games from the gameroom online with the same results. So, I guess it is not just the email link.
Could it be some browser setting that may have gotten changed on my end?

I have no trouble opening my postal games from the gameroom, but probably that it because I have my client set to "Flash Client V2; persistent connection". If I used the Javascript client I might have the same issues.
On the other hand, I just now successfully opened a postal game with the Javascript client from the e-mail link. Go figure.

Crazy thought: I just now failed to open a postal game from the email link in Chrome but succeeded in Firefox. In Firefox the window resized, but I have Chrome set to prevent window resizing. Might the resize have something to do with the issue?

The thing is, I didn't change anything on my end from what had been working for months with no problem. This just started out of the blue, and I have not been able to play since.
I just tried to play a bot on the bot ladder and got the same result, so I can't play at all.
I can view the game by going thru my opponets game list but only as a spectator. I can't make a move.
Does anyone who can help with this problem read this message board?

One thing that might help you is changing your client to something other than Javascript under Settings -> Game Client. That will not affect the behavior of the e-mail link, but should change what happens when you open your games from the game room.
Beyond that, only Omar can help you. He does read this board, but only occasionally. To get a faster response, post your problem here: http://arimaa.com/arimaa/contact/

What about opera and firefox - still the same problem?
Also try flash client (go to the settings - game client - flash client V2 with http connection).

Flash isn't available on some platforms. Also, the javascript client seems to be firewall compatible, and much nicer than flash V1.
Cheers,
knarl.

I don't have firefox installed but I just tried it with opera and crome and same result.
I have been using slimbrowser for the entire time I have been aware of arimaa with no problem till this started.

I suppose the problem is caused by the delaying caused by the 722cassi case. Seems not all changes were correctly taken back. I hope Omar would be able to correct it when he finds a time for it.

Did you try contacting Omar through the contact page? http://arimaa.com/arimaa/contact/ If so, I am surprised he hasn't acknowledged the issue yet.

I sent him a message on the contact page. He said he's looking into it.

mooseye, I'm not sure why the game window is not working for you. I think the earlier problem which several people notices has been fixed. This sounds like a new problem that is happening only for you. Sounds like you've tried it with several different browsers and tried the various different game clients. Can you email me a screen shot of the window; arimaa_game@yahoo.com.

Omar,
I think there are still multiple people experiencing the original "blank board" symptoms on the javascript client.
I agree, it might be a different problem for mooseye if he has tried the different clients, but I'm not sure if he's refering to changing his client, or changing setting *within* the javascript client.
Cheers,
knarl.

For the record, the image mooseye posted in this thread is exactly what I see 90% of the time when I click on the link that has been e-mailed to me to open a postal game. I am not having the problem as severely as mooseye (i.e. all clients, all browsers), but he isn't the only one having a problem.
