I have been trying to download the games for several days now. Every time I click on the rapidshare link I get the following:

Unfortunately right now our servers are overloaded and we have no more download slots left for non-members. Of course you can also try again later.

Do I really have to signup and pay for rapidshare in order to get the games. I love the games and would love to download them but not excited about having to pay rapidshare for them. I would rather pay Shark for creating the games.

Try earlier or later. I'm US Eastern time zone and I have no problems before 7am or late evening. I assume daytime traffic in US and Europe causes the problems.

Rapidshare seems to be a lot busier than it used to be and Free Users are way down in priority.

I've found that persistence pays off and even during the busy times one can usually get a download slot if one keeps putting in a request every couple of minutes or so - still, trying during less busy times can increase D/L rates as well as achieving first time request fulfilment.

I've also found the SkipScreen add-on for Firefox can help get rapid access on many D/L sites, although it is only of limited value on Rapidshare

The board has a flaw. When the last post of a thread is deleted it displays as a new post until a post is added after it, marking as read does not fix the problem. I read EVERY new post every time I log on. I was seeing a dozen or so posts continually listed as new posts. They were not!
When bbpuang deleted his posts and left or was invited to leave and his posts were deleted it created a mess. It was my attempt to clean up the mess. I should have elaborated more on the reason for the post. We have been done this, and discussed it in the past, but never on this scale.
Once a pertinent post is added after my post, I will delete this post.
