I just finished reading brb's post about connection issues. He's had it happen once - recently. As you'll note, from my past posts,the most recent in mid-January, no person on this site experiences more frequent connection issues than me. After the "Nightmare That Wouldn't End" (connection issues every single time I came to this site), I finally took my computer to an expert to try to resolve whatever issues it had. The individual is a 'Senior Software Engineer'- has spent nearly 20 years in the field, worked at Microsoft for a number of years & is currently one of the lead developers/engineers for E.A.Sports. I informed him of ALL the various issues with my system and left the unit with him for 9 days. The work that he performed was equivalent to the cost of replacing this computer & he informed me that perhaps as few as "200 people in the world" could have found & corrected the various issues that he was able to uncover & resolve. Virtually every aspect of the computer is now as good as new...except for one site - FlyOrDie !! Since getting the computer back, there is barely ever a single end, where my connection doesn't get lost. Sometimes I'll lose it 2,3 or 4 times per end!! Usually it comes back...but not always. I've lost it entirely at least 15 - 20 times this month. In fact, I've now started keeping track of "POINTS LOST" due to lost connections. I'm nearing 475 points, just this month!! There is never a way to gain any points, here, any more. I can win 6 or 8 games in a row - gain perhaps 25 or 30 points...& then lose my connection (usually before even throwing a single rock, as has been the case 4 times, in the past 36 hours) and lose those 25 or 30 points - or more - in a matter of a few minutes. All the advice & suggestions I was given last month now seems so pointless. All the time I thought it was the FlyOrDie site. However, others kept suggesting it was my computer. Now that my computer is virtually new again, I at least have the satisfaction of knowing that it was in fact this site all along. What steps can you take to allow me to play on this site without being constantly disconnected?
