Subject: problem with the end of quizzes....Help
Posted by: goodreporter
Date: Oct 29 24
For the last week or so I've been having a problem at the end of some of the quizzes I've been playing, most of them the daily/tournament games.
When I hit the answer to the last question...either number 20 or number 15...I don't get the page with the correct answers, and all the other stuff. I'm getting the message "You have already played in this game" (or maybe it says "quiz". So I can't see what I got right and wrong and can only find out my score and the number I got right by doing a bunch of things to get to even that.
And, no, these are not on quizzes that are hourly, with me playing near the end. This is happening with the Daily Game, Mind Melt, the Tournament and others where I can be playing right when a game starts.
So, since my relationship with computers is like my relationship with snakes (oh, yuck) could one of your computer geniuses look at my account or whatever, see if you can figure out what's happening?
I'd really appreciate it.

Is it possible that you are hitting the 'Submit' button twice? That would cause your second 'submit' to register a second try, even if it comes only a split second after the first 'submit'. Reply #1. Oct 29 24, 10:21 PM |

In one word "no". This is actually happening as soon as I fill in the last question. I don't even have a chance to hit the "submit" button once! but thanks for asking. Now I'm having another problem. I just played Surprise Me. I played the first quiz, which was about where certain telescopes were located. Remember this was the first and only one of those quizzes I played. I got 8 out of 10 correct. But I didn't get my bonus points at all. I just got the amount of points I would get if I juar played a player created quiz, Oh whoever on the site who deal with the problems like this, could you please see what is going on. I'm getting the message when I haven't played anything now, but when I hit the joker to get back of the main page. That happened twice. HELP Reply #2. Oct 30 24, 12:30 AM |

It's not a server side issue. You are having something that submits the quiz for you (and possibly multiple times, since the "you have already played" message can only happen on a second or later submit). I suspect you might have accidentally switched on some keyboard functionality that causes a submit when you press a certain key. Or, if your browser has recently updated, that came with some new keyboard shortcuts enabled by default. Without being physically on your system and seeing exactly how it behaves, I wouldn't be able to help you locate details however. Reply #3. Oct 30 24, 3:08 AM |

Thanks Wes. I don't think it's any of te things you suggested, simply because I haven't done anything to my computer at all. It's an old computer, but I've never had a problem with this until a couple of days ago. And what really concerns me is that it seems to be slowly spreading. At least it spread to something that wasn't a quiz...it spread to my team's message board on which I was reading some things, but posted nothing. When I went to get off, it did the same thing. What really upsets me is that I am really, really depressed and I don't want anything to interfere with my FT account. Playing this is the only thing that distracts me. LOL Thank you for your response. I wish you could look at my computer too. But it would take me a very long time to walk to wherever you are. Terrie Reply #4. Oct 30 24, 12:15 PM |
