Title: Problems
Post by maker on Oct 20th, 2004, 12:47pm
Hey Omar,

    I'm having problems playing from the gameroom.  I keep getting the Not Yet window:  "Not Yet, you must win two games in a row against bot_Arimanaator."  This pops up no matter what bot or person I try to play.  I tried to play against Toby (99 of 9) and the game wouldn't even pop up, just another Not Yet window.  Thanks for your time.

You should probably give some details of your system so Omar can figure it out.  The game started up fine for me, and is now open to play.

Often I get a message "You have started a game with maker, you will be notified by email when it is your turn to move".  If I get that message, I have to close it, and go to the gameroom and click on my name corresponding to that game, then I get the game window.  Perhaps this is what is happening to you?

I tried closing the window and even opening the game on other systems.  I've no idea what's causing this problem.  Maybe my account with the server is somehow messed up.  I have used IE all times I connected.  (kerdamdam and I just had the problem repeat itself when he invited me to a game.)

Thanks for letting me know.

It was due a minor bug in some new code I added yesterday. Should be OK now.

The "Not Yet"-window popped up, when I tried to watch the game bertween Omar and Arimaanator today.

"You need to win two games in a row against bot_Arimaalon before you can play against this bot."

But I only wanted to watch a current game, not play.

I had only played 1 game against Arimaalon at that time.

After I played my 2nd game against Arimaalon, I was able to watch the (still current) game.

Same blocking pop-up for me, but after I won Arimaalon twice in a row, it now tells me to win Arimaazon. I'll eventually do, but I cannot watch that Omar-Arimaanator game today before it ends.

Thanks for mentioning this Claude. It will not check anymore if you only want to watch a game.
