I think people are often fearful of upgrading to the latest version when the older version works fine for them, because changes are often worse.

Re: Bug reports
I was thinking there should be some kind of differentiation between the aptochat messages for people signing in and people signing out, I was thinking a slightly lighter, less obvious, background colour when they are signing out. And then I realised it's easy - just remove the link from their name on the sign out messages. Of course, you can't view player's user profile tabs when they sign out anyway, so this is a bug rather than a straight up feature request. Though you could very slightly change the background colour too, I dunno.

Re: Bug reports
I've just realised why I brought this up. Other characters, such as /"£, don't appear in the typing-in box but A-Z do. It can throw you off a bit if the letter appears in the typing-in box but not the Notes box.Charlie Reams wrote:I'm not sure but it sounds like you're typing Latin characters which happen to look like Greek onesKai Laddiman wrote:In Greek, typing letters into the Note box displays the letters but does not recognise them as letters.

Today's duel keeps saying that everyone who plays it is ranked "#1 out of 0"; won't let me view my own game (saying that you have to have played the duel to view it…which I have); and when I logged out and came back in, it gave me the challenge for it again.

Re: Bug reports
I'm using Linux, but I get the same thing when there's another Java window open, e.g. the game window. I find if I minimise all other apterous windows I can get the cursor to appear, but you might have to minimise and unminimise the chat window as well. I've assumed this is a Java thing rather than specifically an apterous thing.James Hall wrote:I'm having real trouble with the chat - sometimes I just can't get a cursor to appear in it (and typing doesn't yield a result).

Re: Bug reports
Not really a bug, just an aesthetic issue (but I know how important these are to Matt what with his font-fetishism and all that):
In Lexplorer, when you Lexplore a word and the initial results appear, they're all in sexy Calibri, like so:
But then if you expand a section, e.g. to find out who owns the pencil, it all turns into Times New Roman, thus:
Luckily I was able to look away in time so my eyes weren't harmed too much, but the incident left me quite shaken.

I feel like I've seen this bug pointed out (and despaired about) before, but anyway:

Thread-34 [Subscribe failure]: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Character cannot be cast to java.util.List

Re: Bug reports
It's doing this again with Portuguese conundrums. The last one was suddenly do-able after about 3 or 4 days.
And I'm in with a chance of the high score with this one! (But I wouldn't waste any money down at William Hill!)

That was one bug report that you might have taken seriously...

Re: Bug reports
Apologies if this is already a known issue, but since I can't find any evidence of it having been reported:
Underneath the "Format" and "Nines" tabs of Users' pages, where there should be data for the last 30 days, there is no data. Instead there is the message:
Query failed in gen mode [], please report as a bug to charlie@apterous.org
Also, the "disallowed words" is on holiday, although since I never normally look at that tab, I don't know how long that's been the case, and I assume it's deliberately on holiday rather than a bug.
[Edit: problem is now fixed. Ta Charlie.]

Re: Bug reports
Here I was, having already claimed the Portuguese 15 record and then I hit the Portuguese conundrum crashing problem. It didn't do it on the previous game when I needed the conundrum for the record. Why is it doing this to me??
Here's what happens when it crashes too..

Feature request: error boxes should come up in the language of the game being played.

Re: Bug reports
It says on this game's page that it's been excluded due to a bug but it still appears on the fastest conundrums page?

James has highlighted 'wecast' is valid on apterous but it's not in the nODE2r. Cheers

Re: Bug reports
What normally happens [if you want to skip the life story and get to the java message, just see the bottom line]: When I start Firefox (from it having been quit/restarted) and try to get on to the apterous game, it takes about 5 minutes to do the initial log-in, then I have to play test games with Prune to kick the game into action. I normally play one or two letters rounds to warm it up, then I have to get a conundrum right, wait for the game to disappear because it didn't register it on the scoreboard, then log out or start a new Prune test game, get another conundrum right (the second time it does register), then I have to get a conundrum wrong twice as well (same process) before the game finally functions normally. I don't know why, probably something to do with my useless Mac Java, which still has this problem (which has been going on for ages) in its latest incarnation (I installed an update a couple of days ago). Normally I get around these teething problems by simply logging out and in whenever the game freezes, and then playing normally once the game is functioning properly. As long as I don't quit or restart my internet browser from that point forward, I have no log-in or functionality problems with the game.
What's happening now: It only lets me have one successful log-in from the point where I start my internet browser (from it having been quit/restarted). This means that to get through the necessary warm-up conundrums (which are totally necessary for the game to function normally), I have to use all 3 of my allocated games with the bots (to have 2 failed games that freeze and disappear on my first correct and first incorrect conundrum responses). If I try to log out and back in as I normally do, it now comes up with the message below (on any attempt bar the first one). This is a real hassle. If you need the whole console data, I can do that too.
Login failed: java.lang.NullPointerException
