I haven't tried today, but it took a long time to load on Friday.

It has taken a long time to load for months now. For me, I basically have to have nothing running in the background. So I make sure I have a long article or e-mail open and read it while it's loading, or I walk off and wait for the music to start.

Even after I hear the music it takes a while. It just stays at the purple clock or a plain purple screen for a while and then after 2 minutes or more I finally hear Mr. Herriman's voice "Here is your list..." When I eventually see him, then I know it's safe to touch the computer and play the game. Otherwise it just freezes and has an error and I have to start over.

It sucks and is a pain in the butt, but, hey, the game is almost over, so I can live through it another couple months or more. ::)

I don't recall having a plain white screen, unless I was moving between windows and it takes a while for the window contents to 'reappear.'

What do you mean "the game is almost over"?

As they have been updating (i.e., adding more places to visit) the lag time has gotten progressively worse and no matter what is running in the background your likely to be running at 100% CPU usage with most of it being used by your browser (which of course is where the Flash is running). What you may want to try doing is restarting your computer in safe mode where practically nothing is loaded into memory and then playing the game without starting up any other programs. Make sure you can access the Internet from safe mode; I get the option of starting safe mode with networking which will load the drivers I need to access my cable.

To answer Oh No Bloo; the game has only one more update. I doubt CN will do any more updates to the game; they may leave it around for people to finish all the games and rooms or they may pull the game. I have not seen any commercials lately on CN advertising the game.

They can't end the game! What else am I going to do with my spare time??

They'll probably expect you to pay to play Fusion Fall. :P

yeh, I am having this issue today. it is due to the shockwave update. I allowed it to install, now it keeps telling me that I need to reboot then after a reboot it tells me I am missing something and it needs to repair.
this went on for several reboots/reinstalls.

thus I next need to try a different user profile in windows and if that does not work, then I will the uninstall/reinstall approch.

The shockwave update has always been difficult to get througjh.

For others having issues when updating Shockwave.
symptom BFAHP after splash screen sits on white box cannot use mouse on the square.

here is the steps to help solve it..
goto Adoby and update Shockwave player.
if it fails or keeps asking you to restart,
then go back to the page to install/update shockwave,
Look at the text on the bottom of the screen,
click on the text " Standalone installer"
download, and run, install
and hope it works.

it fixes the broken shockwave for me.
