Hi MrNumbers,
I was at Essen Spiel 2012.
I talked with HiG - Georg Wild and Christof Tisch - about the questions.
In the last weeks Obervet03 and I were working a lot. The next coming CAR 6.2 has all the clarifications.
Greetings

We have here the same problems since before the forum was gone.
If you can't login:
Here is a post from Whaleyland at BGG:
------------------------------------------------
The white screen is the correctable problem. Don't log in using your netbook. Then do this:
Type in your Username and Password
Click "Login"
From the white screen, hit the back button on your browser
Display will read "Welcome, Guest"
Click "Home"
Display will read "Hello, (Your name)"
The same thing works after posting, replying, or sending messages. It is a huge pain, but it works until Gantry or Scott can fix the forum. Apparently they both are having RL problems. Ugh, though understandable. If you're auto-logged into CarcCentral, you can't use this technique. I have yet to find out how to get that problem resolved. Kettlefish discovered the above solution.

OK, I will impatiently wait for 6.2  P.S. My auto-login works all the time. I use address http://carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php and directly go to forums list logged in without white screen. However, when sending messages and replying white screen is still the issue. (Windows 7, Opera 12). |

I know, you can come in here in the forum, but many others can't or they do not know how.
We German have now our own forum. We didn't like to wait so long. And at that forum we have all the news about the next coming CAR 6.2. And there you can find the finished CAR 6.1.
I posted the link to Maik's Carcassonne-Forum with the CAR at the Homepage from HiG - Carcassonne - Grundspiel - scroll down under the video - Kommentare (Marion, 12.11.2012 - 7:39)

I was at the fan-meeting at Burg Konradsheim (West-Germany).
There was the author Klaus-Juergen Wrede, too.
We talked together and he gave the fans autographs.

I can't send a PM.
The Verification-Code - The picture is not there - so I can't see any letters or numbers of any Code.
Some month ago we haven't such a "Verification-Code".
It was easy to send a PM.

For almost a year I have my own forum about Carcassonne. It is not so popular, but the goal of making my website and forum was to popularize Carcassonne in my country. Now I have a partnership with local Carcassonne distributor and we regularly organize Carcassonne evenings, where everybody can come and play Carcassonne with many expansions with other players.
What I am trying to say: my forum is based on SMF too, but v2.0.2 (latest at the moment). I haven't got any experience in upgrading forum engine, but my profession is system administrator, so I can offer some help to CarcassonneCentral forum administrators in forum engine upgrading.

So many people can't post anything. Whaleyland can't some hours ago.
I hope, that he could post something later.
Fritz_Spinne can post now.
Every time when I like to post something, I first copy the text (for example in a word.doc) and then I choose the "Post" button.
If I forget this, than sometimes all the text is gone and I can write all again.
The white screen - the backfile button - (ignore what I see) - the "HOME" button - and than I look if the post is there here in the forum.

I got in...on Firefox! I'm auto-logged in on Safari but can't post anything there, and I can't log in on Chrome for some reason. Yay Firefox for letting me in!!!
PS Thanks kettlefish for posting the item earlier. I re-posted it under my own name and deleted yours. No offense intended, just wanted to correct a few things and sticky it as well. Cheers!

Hi, Whaleyland,
I'm glad to see you here again.
If you ignore the errors (white screen, log in failed) only back button (and again ignore what you see) and than the HOME button....
I think Chrome would work than, too for you.
Scott wrote me an email yesterday.
He told me that Gantry will do the work at the forum this weekend.

Yesterday HiG linked twice the German Carcassonne-Forum (Maik's Carcassonne-Forum) at their Homepage. Please look here: Homepage HiG - Links - look at " Carcassonne" - Carcassonne-Forum (the last position) ---------------------------------------------- Here you can find also the link to our homepage of CarcassonneCentral (it's in the middle)---------------------------------------- ...and look here: Homepage HiG - Carcassonne - Carcassonne-Grundspiel - The box "Online" - Carcassonne-Forum |
