    Trust me to notice, but for me none of the arcade games will load up. When i try, i get a page with a black window where the game would usually be, and this error message at the top of the page:

    "Warning: fopen(arcade/8Ballv32Th.swf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/arcade.php on line 636"

    the above example is for 8 ball champion, but all the other games give a similar message

    [edit]

    Actually, asteroids still works... let's see if any others do...

    these ones still work:

    asteroids, breakout, hexxagon, moon lander, simon, snake, space invaders, tetris

    all the others are broked =(

    Yeah, we're having issues with it. It's beyond our reach to do anything about it, but we've alerted the folks in charge.

    When will the arcade come back? I love playing the games while I wait for people to respond to me.

    We don't really have an estimate on when the arcade will be open again. Unfortunately, the technical people don't have the time to fix the problems we've been having with the arcade at the moment, but hopefully it'll be back up soon enough.

    Surely it's more likely that you'll go insane from playing it too much! :slight_smile:

    Anyway, when it goes back up will the highscores have been wiped? I might have a chance of being top!

    Sorry about the delay on this peeps. It seems that the problems for this are a lot more complicated than we thought.

    As of yet we've been unable to get it back up and running again (despite peeps a lot more knowledgeable than me on this stuff trying) so Ima just have to keep seeing if I can find a solution anywhere online. I've put this at the top of my priorities list for stuff to get sorted on here, so hopefully I'll have some good news for you all soon!

    Martin.

    Hmm ... you might want to add wiping it and installing a new one to your list of considerations (if vBulletin works similarly to other forum software I've used, anyhow).

    ^ We may have to do that if we can't come up with a solution soon. We've tried coming up with potential solutions that wouldn't affect the scores that members have saved in the games, but we may have to give up on that aim if further attempts fail to fix it. :\
