The last time I played was over a week ago, on my cranky old dinosaur of a laptop, and I didn't have any problems with it, other than the fact that I stink at the game. I haven't heard of his problem, either.
I would recommend ignoring the game for now if it's giving you fits. The only reason I played was that I had 9 or 10 seeds. And I only won 300
KC. Great game, huh?
