I had to clear my cache and logins and that seems to have fixed things up for me.

I cleared my cookies too, to no avail. For me, it turned out to be part of a larger problem of not being able to actually log in. I'd log in, try to comment here, then be told I had to log in to comment, over and over in a vicious circle. And no matter how many times I tried, I could only access that anonymous team. Was everyone in the same boat after 8:30 PM?

But that was last night. This morning, I saw the anonymous team once, 2 of which were active, then logged in again and got back to my team just now. Could it be that part of the solution is for someone to mess with the anonymous team, activating a few of them?

I just activated them. I noticed someone did so about 90 minutes ago too.

Update: I have my team back.

First I changed some bot's name, then Team Name and Motto. Maybe thats how to get it done?

No, there was a problem with site cookies. Ryan fixed it, best to clear them and start again.

I'd been playing fine all late afternoon, but as of 10 minutes ago, whenever I try to activate, deactivate, or deploy anyone, the anonymous team pops up with an error message saying I can't have more than 6 active Transformers, or that character #______ DOES NOT EXIST! Or maybe it was "...could not be found", but that's just plain scary. Anony-team has 6 waiting in the arena, and I can't seem to do anything to the inactive ones.

Guess I'll try clearing the cookies again...

There was a hiccup with the cookies again. Trust me, Ryan's working on it as fast as he can.

Happened again at about 4:15 this afternoon.

I'm not complaining, just trying to leave a log of occurrences in case that helps.

About an hour ago HMW was really slow compared with the rest of the site. It made me remember what Ghost Rider and other three, dont remember their names, did very long ago. Hope I'm wrong :p.

It doesn't matter what they did. What happened in the past should stay in the past.

No need to keep dredging up crap like that Tif, not unless you can actually prove it's happening.

-edit-

I'll also add that such things SHOULDN'T happen again because that's exactly the reason we have the mission time limits.

You're right Burn. But take three minutes to load a HMW mission didn't look good.

Anyway, everything is fine now ;) . I forgot about the time limits too :p.

Yes, but then I just click on Game, then click on Registry and everything works fine. It's weird, but just an inconvenience of about 5 seconds every time I want to do something. Not even worth complaining about unless you know it's symptomatic of a larger problem.

Yeah, I'm having that problem, have been for a few days. I find that if I'm idle for like 10 minutes, it'll redirect me, but if I'm not idle for very long, it wont.

Yeah it's a bug. The session "times out" for non-forum parts of the site so we just have to nudge it again.

Will get fixed. In time.

It's not a problem. I think it's time to put HMW to bed. There's too few of you interested in this game any more. I'd rather focus our energies on the areas where Seibertron.com excels. I'll leave the game up for the time being, but it will no longer be in the primary navigation of the site.
