Cannot play Mine Sweeper Flags game.. by SubZero on 03-24-2005 at 09:10 PM

Hi,

I can not play Mine Sweeper Flags (using a localised MSN) game with any of my pals. I press start button and it says waiting for opponent to press start.. My pal told me that he can play with others with no problems. |-)

I had tried 6.2 version and 7.0 versions but still I couldn't play it. 8-)

What should I do?

you could close and restart the game.

this could be a result of the servers being busy..

just give it time.

Check if it works with your other friends.

I have tried at least 50 times within the last month with nearly 20 people. I could never start playing it.
I have also tested it from my neighbors box to his pals but everytime I tested, it connected to the other party and started playing it.

I thought that I had problems with my comp and did a reinstall of msgplus, msn (different versions) but it did not fix it... :(

Did you try temporary disabling your firewall and see if that works?


RE: Cannot play Mine Sweeper Flags game.. by SubZero on 03-25-2005 at 12:58 PM

what firewall? :D
I don't use a firewall..

Tried various connection settings. XP firewall is disabled on both my and my neighbours machine. we use the same modem and in the same LAN..

Any more suggestions?

that happens to me about 50% of the time.

Maybe because you was using BETA?
Don't know why it didn't work in 6.2 though.

I don't think so. If it was MSN Beta, then it would simply work with 6.2 right? ;)

This is why I hate it when they say it is simply because of the BETA. No no no, those bugs will surely be fixed at the time of Alpha 's or Pre-alphas ;)
