Is anybody else having trouble loading the flash games? I usually have no trouble at all with flash documents, but these just are not loading for me. Is it my firewall or something?
Same here, meant to say something but forgot, LOL

I had the same problems using an older flashplayer version in linux. Updating it to the current version fixed it for me....

The flash games load without any problems for me. I'm using winXP, firefox 2.0.0.1 and Adobe Flash player 9,0,28,0 .
Hopefully ginc's suggestion of updating flash player could work for you.

Arrrrgh.. anyone else addicted to Crystals?
Also, I think puzzles are removed from the main lists once you solve them. Try going into a category with not many puzzles, solve one, and then reload the page...

omg My finger is practically raw from clicking crystals!
I was in my bedroom the other day playing, and my boyfriend came in to give me a kiss on the head. I said, "Don't touch me! I need to get the high score!"
And I was actually genuinely frustrated when I did get the high score once, and it didn't record my name -- I was one of the blank people.
Oh, boy. I'm going to have to regulate my play-time with that one!

a coupla things ..
1: i can get the flash games to load, but not register my high score in firefox. i can't get 'em to load in explorer. i gave up
2: my rank is currently dropping like a stone .. who's getting points and how are they doing it ?
EDIT: quite a lot of people (me included) didn't get 25 points for todays puzzle. maybe because i'd already solved it as part of the main puzzle pool. if so - i ain't solving any more without the dangling carrot of 25points

Yeah, it's really annoying. Something that MC need to have a think about, perhaps.

I didn't get the points for todays puzzle either and I hadn't solved it before so I don't think thats relevent. At the point I did it I was still in 1st place so I guess no one had got points from it but now I've dropped to 56 so it looks like they have fixed the problem now but those of us that solved it earlier didnt get the points. I have tried emailing the mind candy help but had no response.

Well I'd done todays puzzle before and still got the points... Not quite sure what went wrong for you.

Jeez.... this new site is making me feel like a dumbass!!!
I'm kinda thinking a little 'hints' button might be nice for those of us who's brains seem to work a little slower.
Like here...
Odd one out:
Tone, Tickle, Tar or ... damn, I forgot.
But I didn't get it!!
Aiieeeeee...
