Problem here!
Here's the picture, you go to select various missions for your characters, you make your selections, all's well, but you suddenly change your mind about one of your selections and move the character into a different mission, and again, all's well.
Until you hit the confirm button, the selection isn't overwriten for your previous mission, and as that seems to take priority, your character enters it, you get a little miffed off, and your character is butchered in the process!
Put it down to carelessness, but I don't always remember to clear the roster for the previous selected mission, so it's always placing my chaacter in the wrong mission.
Not really a bug but if something could be done that would be appreciated (for a very careless player
)! I'd imagine other players might have the same problem too (though not 100% sure on that )!

I assume your using Firefox as that bug only appers with that browser, which i s why there is a don't join button on the side of each mission

Thanks.

Not really sure if this is a bug - but I am unable to give 4 of my team robot modes. Is there some sort of minimum requirement before I can allocate a 'bot mode to them?

It's not just Firefox. I'm getting the same problem using Internet Explorer.
Edit: The issue seems to have gone away... for now.

I'm attempting to change/switch the names of a couple of my characters on my team but am recieving a "Character Already Exists" message, even after I've changed the name of the character in question so he doesn't "exist," even temporarily.

I'm currently having log out problems, in the tense that it won't let me log out.
The button only redirects me to my profile page, which is fustrating as I don't log out of my profile automatically.
Can anyone help please?
Side Note: I'm aware this time that it's not just firefox (it's happened on IE) and it's not just me (one of my mates has the same problem).

^ Same with Feralbrawn's... Image URL name might be in need of a change, maybe?
Also, I just wanted to mention that my permanent prize alt for winning the Scavenger Hunt a few months ago has completely disappeared...
