BB, I lost internet at home just before the season started.

I am using a laptop but cannot successfully log in via IE or Chrome. (either one of these would work for me at home last week) If I use the wrong login info, it tells me so. If I do it right, it just reloads the front page. This happens on the www and www2 addresses. I managed to reset my password, but nothing changed.

I am on right now at a FedEx office (paying by the minute) using firefox. Any idea why I can't get on with my own computer but I can at a business? Does BB hate laptops? Is only Firefox good enough to log in with now? This is the only browser game I play that has given me trouble. I have already lost a game and screwed my enthusiasm by not being able to plan. I hope I can save my season without spending a fortune on FedEx fees.

Since I will only attempt to be on on game days, if you have an idea, email me at niceguyactor at hotmail dot com.

(also post the advice you gave so I don't get a bunch of repeated messages)

Have you tried to clear your cookies and cache?

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

Any two will do

clear your cache and cookies, like they both said. It works usually.

But no, BB doesn't hate laptops- I've never used anything but a laptop to log on to buzzerbeater.

Maybe BB's just pulling an April Fools joke on you.

Let me assure you that we don't antagonize the users with the April Fools jokes - they simply antagonize me instead.

Oh, this predates April Fool's.

Tried deleting cache and cookies on chrome, it did nothing. Installed firefox and it works. I dunno why, but I'll take it.

Excellent!

I know another game I play, well, two of them actually, that pulled some strange pranks for April Fools day ...

but of course, Edju, you know I'm only joking. I would, at least, EXPECT the creators of a game to have the maturity to not do that kind of thing, but just, you know, trying to piece together the puzzle.

I know for me that I had certain browser extensions running that wouldn't cooperate with games such as this. The page would simply refresh after I attempted to log-in. I believe "fastestfox" was one of them. I disabled the extensions and we're running lean. We're back on track!

Also clearing your cache, as others have mentioned.
