Ah, on closer inspection I can see that indeed your caterpillar's tongue is firmly planted in its cheek. I know a good caterpillar vet that specializes in tongue-cheek separation.

My apologies, Pete. Please forgive my goof, I did not mean to offend! Many thanks again for your help. Per your recommendation, I reduced the MTU size in my router to 1442 three days ago, and I...

Thanks Pete! Sorry, I was just thanking Gondorian for taking the trouble. YOU were the one who turned us on to this MTU thing. Thank YOU! :)

Hi, Gondorian. Actually, if the SE client is being updated to resend corrupted or missing network packets, I think that will probably totally fix the problem. The network hiccups that SE...

Hello, Gondorian. Thanks for the pointer to that Wikipedia article on MTU size, that makes a lot of sense. And a couple of days ago I reduced the MTU size on my home router from its default 1500 to...

Hi, Pete. I think you are onto something. Since switching the MTU size of my router to 1442 from the default 1500, I haven't had any lost games or network sync draws due to network glitches. It's...

Hi, Pete. Thanks again for your reply. With regard to the MTU size in my router so that SE stays happy, I reduced it from 1500 to 1442 yesterday. I'll watch to see if the problem recurs. I never...

Jeromy: Thanks for your note. I was starting to wonder if it was just me. But you and I and bowserr have all seen the same problem with SE on the iPhone/iPad.

Hi, bowserr. I agree with you. Back in SE v1.7, if I hit the dreaded "Wait 45...44...43..." message on the network connection, I could often recover by quickly going into settings on the iPhone and...

Hi, Pete. First of all, I really appreciate you taking this time, much appreciated.

In answer to your question, my Internet connection is cable broadband via Charter cable TV. It's not ADSL per...

Hi, Pete. I have successfully tried that trick (above) on v2.00 of SE, but this trick no longer works for me on v2.01. Once the dreaded "Wait 45...44...43..." message starts in SE on my iPhone 5,...

I just now had this same bug occur again. I am playing a regular "Quick Game" match (not a Meltdown match). My opponent apparently left the game, but I have been waiting a full 20 minutes and SE...

I can confirm this bug. Twice today, when playing Meltdown, I noticed that my card count when down after selecting cards, when the match was just beginning, because all multiples of my selected...

Hello, Padawan Pete. That is interesting that you have had good luck with Shadow Era on your iPhone 5, without getting the "Wait 45...444...43..." network error. Can I collect a little more data...

FYI: This problem still occurs with the new v2.010 release of SE on the iPhone 5. Today I was playing SE on my iPhone in my family room, with a very strong WiFi signal (full strength). In mid-game,...

I just wanted to mention to the SE dev team that this bug/problem still exists in the new v2.010 version of SE on the iPhone 5.

Description: When "Music" and "Turn Notification" are turned off in SE, game is totally silent (as it should be), except for the explosion sound effect, which is quite startling when you playing in a...

I have seen this same behavior. I'm using SE v2.010 on the iPhone 5. Since upgrading to v2.010, I have had three Meltdown games where my opponent stopped responding. In one of those cases, the...

Description: iPhone version frequently loses network connection for no apparent reason. In the middle of a match, even 20 feet from the WiFi hotspot with full WiFi connectivity, SE will display the...

Hello, pyrogene. Yes, Consuming Fear triggers AFTER the ability has taken effect. In the case of an attack, CF triggers BEFORE the attack damages the opponent. I'm not enough of an expert to...

Never mind. My bad. I feel so incredibly lame. I just now constructed and played a test game (Illusionator vs. Incipient Doom, around 11:00pm Eastern Time this evening) to test out this "problem,"...

Hi, cycle. Thanks very much for your reply. But I'm still confused. I'm so sorry I'm being so dense.

From the card text, it seems as though Death Mage Thaddeus (DMT) and Plasma Behemoth (PB)...

Hi, Drakkon. Thanks for the reply. If your description above of the Consuming Fear mechanics is correct, then why is Death Mage Thaddeus with CF attached able to activate twice before CF kills it? ...

Thanks, Shadowborn. However, I'm still confused. You say that a 1 health Plasma Behemoth's ability triggers first before Consuming Fear kicks in and kills PB. But that is not what I have found to...

My bad! I'm so sorry. I just now rewatched the game, and I had forgotten that my opponent had played Poison Gas on my hero a few turns before his Cobra Demon attacked me. I should have rewatched...
