Ok, On any server, on any of my gold accounts, when I go to settings, and adjust my formation, when I click on lobby, i'm disconnected, anyone else having this problem?

*TN*

PS: I also have to wait a while before I can get back on, because it says connection refused.

A lot of people are having this problem. Dark-Death and tyu can't log on to Army and GL respectively. What's going on?

For those who are having trouble, try clearing those cookies and rebooting, as normal. If it doesn't work... wait for word from Bills. I'm sure he's looking into this problem now.

Stop the press, we have a possible reason for the problems.

DO NOT PUT THE AMBUSHER ON THE FIELD. When you do, you get disconnected and are unable to log back on to that server at all, even with a grey.

This problem's been fixed, continue play as normal.:)

I couldn't replicate the problem, anyone else still getting this after a cookies clear or F-5?

I think it's cleared up by itself. Maybe the servers were adapting to the new unit or something? Maybe it wasn't properly incorporated?

The point is, we're back up and running. And I hate the ambusher already. Say goodbye to the few remaining turtles that work. The ambusher will then become obsolete because it sucks against anything other than a defensive formation.

Just because you're grey, right? I doubt golds will stop using turtles against greys. But yeah, the turtle as a gold vs. gold form is just about done. Except for BW turtles, which suck. All hail the rise of only one type of formation, the rush.

Woohoo. [/sarcasm]

* Rubs hands together*
As I played with a rush often back in May, I love the prospect of it becoming the dominant form. I love turtles too, I just have an emotional connection with a rush.:)

But even so... the game is going to become variations of rush, and that's it. That strikes me as somewhat boring.

I might start using only my anti-rush turtle now. The one with no stoney. They've been rendered useless.

I agree that this will make things harder for turlers, however on legends, resides a unit that may just help it....:D

Even the wisp won't bring back the turtle. A turtle is nothing without its cleric.

maybe i'm stupid, but how would the wisp help a turtle anyway? isnt that kind of like using a chanty in a turtle? it has the very real possability of backfiring in your face big time

Bottle

The only reason a chanty is not used in a turtle is because the 2 scouts give it trouble without a BW to help it. The wisp will be more effective than a chanty, because it does DAMAGE. It's like a long-lasting mudquake. The scouts may still give it trouble, but at least it can then repoison easily, since it only has 2 recovery. And it also has a long enough move range to ecape if it gets into trouble.

But even this is just like another frosty or chanty. It's not going to make turtles all-powerful in the same way that the ambusher has made turtles completely useless.

I'm having issues. I started using the ambusher and I've gotten d/c twice in the past half hour. This sucks. And then I have to get out of tao completely and start all over just to be able to get back in and I don't appreciate losing stats because of a d/c!

I thought this had been taken care of, just email bills and he should able to tell ya something.

I think his email is

Billkara@flashplayer.com

He's been emailed, so I'm not sure what's going on.

It's insanely frustrating.

It always happens minutes before winning too.
It makes me want to scream.

It's quite simple. Don't use the ambusher, and you won't get d/ced. And ESPECIALLY don't use it against my turtle. :)

I choose not to have enemies on tao and I don't know you, Bottle, well enough to say anything about you, but I have stopped using the GA just so I wouldn't get d/ced. If Bills takes care of this problem, I would appreciate it greatly.
