On the slashing game (when it actually works) it is impossible for me to get anything higher than a 2.0, regardless of my time/how many it needs.
- o-
But most of the time I click and it wont even start the slash dot (aka nothing happens). -_-

I had the same issue with the bubble games 2-3 days ago, too.

Try another browser and make sure you got the latest flash player.

Jaruga. I am on my fastest, best browser. And the other day I installed the flash update 5 times to make sure I definitely had it. I am competent enough to tell when something is wrong with a game, and not me or my computer.

The game is easier using a tablet 'cause I can reclick much faster (though the problem isn't gone), I can finish in under 20 seconds but my score still stays around 2.

I can get 10s on any game but slash. It just pops out 2s no matter what.

I am sorry to say but You are not competent enough to tell that something is wrong with the game because it simply is not the game that causes the problems.
The game works perfectly and you gotta finish under 7 seconds to get a 10. It's pretty easy to do so with both mouse and tablet I tried both. Even with a laptop I got a 10 so It really is not the game.

Enter code day 7 is still messed up. I can do it in under 6 secs and still get a 2.

Also, crunches now says you are doing accuracy at the end.

What do you mean?
Everything gets fixed what can be fixed right so it does get read.

I've been having lag problems with ALL the games throughout the entire span of the Olympics gonk . I've tried all that I can think of to make sure it would work smoothly, but I'm still having the same issues. Every time I click (say, to shoot a bottle cap, flip a card, ect.) everything in the game freezes for a few seconds, costing me precious time. I have to wait, then click again, go through the same delay, and so on.

However, I've noticed something. A few times I've loaded the game, and for one reason or another the two announcers at the top didn't load.

Every time that happens, my games run perfectly smooth. No hitches, no pauses in the middle of games, no lag. After noticing that, I've started to pay attention, and it it would seem that every time a new speech bubble is generated by one or the other, the game tends to lag.

And they tend to produce a lot of banter during a game.

I have no idea why this could be. I have the most updated versions of anything needed, I have a speedy internet connection, and my computer is rather new and runs just fine.

Maybe those two announcers really don't like me so much emo .

So, I just have a suggestion (I know it's too late now, seeing as the Olympics are almost over, but it couldn't hurt right?) for future events... maybe make any extra, entertainment-value graphics like those two announcers removable (with a minimize/maximize bar, or an X?)... or offer lower-quality graphics, like in Towns?

Sometimes even removing the sound effects in games can help them run smoother, so perhaps also offer the choice of turning the sounds on/off for games that don't necessarily require them.

In any case, glad to see that this event has been running so smoothly, and thanks all for working so hard on it :3!

Hey Ryoko I don;t know what you did and did not try but do you have a lot of programs open or programs that leach you CPU speed maybe?
If that is it might be the problem.
For example when I play the games and have a flash video running i sometimes get a little lag.
I really don't know what the problem would be. I know I had this problem for each and every game a long time ago. What I did was reinstall my whole browser and flash player and that seemed to work for me.

Just trying to help (Doesn't want to get attitude again just for trying to help)

Having problems with the Fan Escape, or whatever. You're running from a chick, that game.

I'm doing it in under 6 seconds, and getting a 2.

[shox2]

I really like Ryoko's idea, if it's possible to do it in the future ^^; I'm no longer living in the U.S. or the "western world" so, not only is my net crappy, so is my current computer XD;;;

Throughout the event, I've experienced extreme lag on any of the washing/vacuuming/shooting/aiming/slashing/matching cards. The only games I seem to be quite good at is the counting ones XD;; and probably the watermelon lol. I was hoping to find a quality control or whatever on the games (and put it on the lowest quality) to lessen the lag a bit. unfortunately, no such thing ;__; The funny thing is that the timer seems to work w/o lag at all XDDD; So for the first day of the event, the highest I could get is a 5.88 average XDDD;

The speech bubbles from those sports casters really make things even more laggy. It's a fun feature and all, but if possible, may be in the future, users will have the option to turn off sound effects/extra comment features by NPCs and change quality of the games. It would be really nice if Gaia can make the future games/events to be more enjoyable not only for people with the fast connections and computers, but also for those that aren't so lucky? ^^;

Thanks ^^

And of course, we have the issues for the alternative key pressing in the new day. The Escape the Fan and Inflate ones. *sigh* One of my problems is that no matter which key (and I am only hitting those keys) something random happens like the game freezes or it pulls down the menu button or it closes it all completely.
