Re: Server Downtime and Data Loss

Not to worry.

It is too easy to forget that a physical copy of the games exist and we take it for granted the game will always be available. It is a bit like electricity, clean water and sewage!

Well done on the recovery.

Re: Game Statistics

These stats do not slow the game down. I don't see any good reason to disable them.

Lack,

Could you please tell me how they possibly can't slow the game down? Every roll now has to update the BOB info on the screen.

Whether they slow the game down noticably or not is another matter. As I've ...

Been thinking about downloading adding the game stats software for ages. Now that you have done it as default I'm not so sure about it.

Why? The games is taking longer to load between rolls. Maybe this was just a Monday morning thing! I'll keep an eye on this and feedback further experiences.

I like where your idea comes from. Freestyle offers a simple way to play one round in a multi-player game within 24 hours. It can appear unfair, especially when someone gets two turns in quick succession - alas that's the nature of the beast.

For people who understand the rules of this it does become a part of the strategy on certain maps.

Disclose the fact on your wall.

If you are still concerned then send an e-ticket letting them know that you are genuine.
