 round 11 decide to sell 3plots to the other, but instead of game freezing, Cbass and myself got booted right off mule! and both had to relog in only to see them laughing in the lobby while they play the rest of the game?

is it possible to hack of alter game in some way, cuz this is getting nuts!

Sounds like a null point error to me. No hacking involved.

Selling land is frowned upon by some (not me), but selling land in round 11
seems wrong, even to me.

Sounds like, but DM is familiar with Null Pointer, and seems to be saying it didn't say it.

You don't always get a message box when a program crashes. There are times I'll be working with a program, it will crash, and I'll get a box but other times it just vanishes. I suspect it has something to do with memory usage or the like.

The game log does suggest it was a null pointer DM.

  Yes thank you gohar, The reason I thought it was something else at that moment (july 2012) was because the system was kicking 1 or more and was leaving 1 or more players to go on and play. I had never seen that before and not only was there no null point error pop up but you got booted right off pm altogether(meaning you had to log back in). Now we all know better, now I will lock this thread as the null point is no more.


Ps. thanks for pointing this out gohar, now how about playing me again?? 1 game in over a yr is where we sit. You can find me in the lobby most nights after 8:00pm pdt




your old nemesis,
