I can't seem to logon to gameranger, or visit their webpage...is that just me, or is it happening to everyone. It has been last night and today this has done this. 5-17th through 5-18th..

Well, I can never log on and I don't know why. It might have to do with my proxy or something.

Do I ask too many questions?

Evill was complaining two days ago that the making Gameranger OS X native would take a long time, and required lots of work. That's my guess, as I can't sign on either.

I was just on GameRanger two nights ago! Yes, you're right; I can't get on either--error, "Connection Time Expired." They might be revamping?

The OS X thing seems slightly more believable than the rumour that Evill has been hospitalised Posted Image

it's not the hospital thing, if it was why would he shut down the GR server before he all the sudden had his surprise accident that sent him to the hospital..think about it..I know evill devotes most of his life to GR, but taking the time to shut down GR while he's having a heart attack or something is a little far fetched...

Especially when the server is in New York and Evill is in Australia. Why bother shutting the server down?

Its not like Evill has to be on for GR to run.

I just got on GR for about 5 minutes before I lost connection and couldn't get on again. Posted Image I just registered Ares too. Owell, It's the first time I'v actually been able to connect for 2 days so I guess I cant be too mad. Posted Image

Heh. Perfect timing for my latest big GR ban. (no joke, but at least, it's only a week this time)

Jimmy, I can't sign up in the ladder with my hotmail adress, the mail.com adress I signed up with stopped recieving emails for about a week, then my account was deleted. Long story short, could you send my password for 'Madman' on the ares ladder to Madmanjeff@hotmail.com please?

I usually only come here past dawn when I've been up all night, so please don't bother me about a signature.

It is 5/20 and I can't get on GR right now, it is during a low access period, 1 AM, so there should be no trouble going on, but I can't even with my fast connection.:-(

I don't know, why is it down? And how did you get that funky underline thingy under your text? I thought HTML was turned off...
