If you experience a problem please post here.

Please try and be as descriptive as you can, state your Java version and take a screenshot if appropriate!

If you are having trouble logging in please close all browser windows before coming back. If you still have trouble please press refresh (f5).

EDIT: I see some users are trying to log in via the previous version. The old version is incompatible and it reports possible net failure when it's due to an expired game client. If this is happening to you close all browser windows before logging in again. If it still occurs you could then try a complete system restart.

Right, a problem is coming in on the log files (causing people to be logged out at game end). A restart is required.

The colours arent being respotted until after you have played the shot on the next red - doesnt seem quite right

The angles on arcade are completely different for me, can't get close to a half cent at the moment!

Love the new layout to Nick!

The balls are drawn with improved accuracy so some changes may be noticed depending on screen resolutions etc. However, I'm not going to consider this a problem unless you can describe a particular shot where the balls move in a different way than how they should in the real world.

If anyone has problems it would be worth learning the new default cursors which are exactly the same size as the balls.

Hi,

I like the new layout, have to get used to it though....

But I have a problem with the chat bar. It is too far down to the bottom of my screen.... hard to type msgs to other players: uupdate: this happens with IE6, not with Firefox....

I also noticed that when in practice the coloured ball is not always respotted immediately. I've seen it twice now.

Next problem (minor)
In practice I fouled on the last black (potted both black and white)
I got my score and statistics. Then I potted black. The score was raised with seven points (correct) but my shot statistics now showed 1/1/1.0
see below:

GAME: Rack total of 62 points scored
GAME: Rack Shots/Balls/Ave.: 51/24/0.47
GAME: Rack total of 69 points scored
GAME: Rack Shots/Balls/Ave.: 1/1/1.0

Great score of 69 points with only one shot

And it could do with 'remembering' what size you have the chat area set to.

OK, aeolus the double finish you described should be fixed, plus the chat panel being set too low.

I can't reproduce the balls not being replaced immediately. If this happens could you detail the game and whether practicing or in-game?

Regarding playing the yellow in practice it now gets respotted if you potted it illegally (same as game). I don't think there's a problem there. Before there was no foul checking for replacing the balls in practice.

Ok, there is something 'terrorising' my game now. Everything is running quite fine but when a shot is made the table freezes and then i have to keep minimizing and re-opening the game window
