The lottery isn't working right, tried early this morning to buy the maximum tickets for the weekly lottery ( you have to buy them one at a time ) and after buying two I got this message,

The Item you are trying to purchase is currently out of stock.

I did buy the maximum tickets for the daily lottery first and it worked, any chance there is a limit on how many tickets you can buy at one time, Your allowed 5 for the daily and 5 for the weekly.

Also I tried logging out and cleared the cookies but still getting the same message.

The gift giving just worked for 850R and myself. We were both able to give each other a gift, we both got PM message notification we received gifts, and I can see them both displayed to be seen when we post in the forum.

I just sent you a gift and its now showing on my end. And I must have double clicked or something cause now you have two... I "herd" those were going around ¬.¬

They posted to me on Feb 7 at 12:22 pm, I SO knew that double gift was a glitch ;-P

I now have gifts sent and received here that are Cliff tested and Cliff approved - All seems copacetic on that front. [For me.. So far . . . Today ;-P ]

I do agree the lottery is still goofy and buying single tickets only is a complete rectal pain IMO. Hopefully that is temporary.

EDIT: D'OH! Ninja'd by Cliff about the working gifts

I have fixed it so that lottery tickets should not display that out of stock message any more.

Allowing you to buy several tickets at a time might however be harder. I will look into it but it will require changing the code.

In Internet Explorer, some of the customizing options for my user name and title are working, and others which worked before are now being glitchy. Details in my PM.

I will look into it better and give you a more detail answer once I seen your PM but generally can be said that many of the custom touches will allways be glitches because there is really no established universally accepted framework for the mark ups user.

Thanks, I just thought you might not have enough on your 'to-do list' you know ;-D.

I just got the glow feature to work again.

Judging from your information, can I expect these customizing features to never be one-hundred percent reliable in their functioning, and therefore I may have to try more than once with some of them?

The problem with that is, it uses up AC dollars each time it says I've successfully purchased something when I haven't even pressed the "purchase" button and the feature doesn't show up.

Apparantly, these are nonrefundable even if there's a malfunction.

Also, is there any way to change one's mind about the colors or features without first having to remove the existing colors or features? Wouldn't it be simpler if we could just type in or click on our new choices and they would automatically over-ride the existing ones?

Just a thought . . .

It would be simpler but it would also requires me going over all of the code. I will look into it if I have time over but i make no promises.
