I tried a spot on the grid but this message showed up. I trust Patchou and Messenger Plus! but this IS kind of fishy...

Read the other thread.. it's just a small bug. I've even got 404 errors, but IF you win anything it will be recorded anyway.

Why is it fishy? It's just an error message, because the server didn't receive the coordinates from your PC properly. Could be because the connection was lost while it was sending the data, which happens sometimes on a busy server. It's not like it says "You just clicked a winning pixel but we're not sending you anything... mhuauahaha".

I had the same error too once.

Also, don't forget that we are in the second day of contest.. Some bugs can appear too...

I'm playing the whole day and I had only one error -> whem the servers went down... In exception of that, no problems

This bug has just been found and fixed.

On one particular co-ordinate, I get a blank screen after clicking it, just to let you know. Hasn't happened with any other co-ordinate yet. I'll let you know if this changes.

Update: stopped now.

Another error that I got after click a coordinate (can't recall which), is a blank window.
The window title and borders are displayed correctly, but the content is simply white.
Closing and reopening and contest window seems to fix the issue.

I said fishy. I never insulted you and like I said I trust you and your software. So paranoid nothing. I was just reporting the bug.

I know you didn't insult anybody, keep cool :). Thank you for reporting the problem.
