Just wanted to say sorry about disappearing abruptly from some Team Scrum games lately. For some reason, my Mac has decided it likes to freeze during TT. I'm not left-brain enough to figure out why.

Zut Alors!

Well I think the mac experts can figure it out! So guys what the probelm anyone?

Im not a mac expert but the first question is always about your internet connection... How is it??

I am a Mac user, and I also wanna ask: what upgrade are you currently on? OS9? OSX?
Mine rarely freezes, but if it does, it is usually during a mod when it has to download more than my limit for my TT file.

Well it's definitely not the internet connection. Checked that out.
The freeze is like a record skipping. I have to do a hard reboot. I'm using OS X and it happens during regular scrum games -- not just mods.

I'm wondering if you have some kind of program running in the background that hits the internet periodically to get data. I've had that happen when I leave my e-mail running in the background, and it checks the server. (it doesn't crash, but lags temporarily...)

Hmm... Could be. I'll see what happens when I turn my mail off. Thanks LGM :)

One app that's easy to miss is printer sharing. If you are sharing a printer with another mac wirelessly it can bog things down in TT.

I like to close all my apps when I play TT.
The most important thing when I'm in my glass jar atop my tank is to outdrivemy foe.
The rest is superfluous.

Thanks guys.

I closed all my apps the last few times I played. Yup. That worked. Duhr.

Lol, I have a weird internet, sometimes my internet will "hiccup" and throw me off... This happends for about 5 seconds and then my internet is restored
it only happends once in a while and there is no need to figure the problem out, because here is the answer....
Verizon sucks....
around here... I lose my internet when it rains.... Bummer huh?
