Game locked up when Excelsior awarded paperwork buff today.
Also Excelsior caused lock up yesterday but cant remember exact circumstances. Might have been when I got buff then as well.
In both cases refresh sorted it out.

Game locked up when Excelsior awarded paperwork buff today.

having issues with excelsior.. when adding crystals to create letters, the game locks.. crystals do not add and cant close the excelsior window to try again.. only way to clear the window and unlock is to refresh, however upon refreshing the crystals are lost and no apparent rewards given. This was happening on test but to a much bigger degree. It seems the issues have been reduced but certainly not solved when launched in main game.
I don't know if this is a bug but every 2nd time I fuel the forge, the Excelsior window freezes and i cant see the rewards this process brings. 1 time i saw that the number of letter snippets had grew so i assume i get some rewards but i cant see what.
Here is a snapshot: prntscr.com/ckjml2
You can notice the close window button is inactive and i can say that there is activity in the background.
Could smb check it?
EDIT: Merged.
Thanks for reporting this guys - I've alerted the devs to this bug, and we'll hopefully find the issue and squash it. As always, if anyone else has the same/similar problems, keep the reports coming. The more information we get, the faster we can fix it!
Hi
yesterday the game totally froze and crashed on me using it i was in other account, incognito also on chrome as the game download was still playing up for me not loading (im in other account in game download today thats fine it seems now)
i did have screenshots yesterday but dont have them now
on other account i put all 17 crystals i had and pressed the button to do them all together the game totally froze for me i couldnt even X the (pinky ponk i call it lol) and at one point i did whisper a mod to pass a message on for me to a guild member in other account from this account, to explain my game had broke on me, and i would try refresh and see if it would work as said guild member i could see them chatting to me in guild chat but i had no way to reply or do anything I put it down to 1st day teething probs
After that even on this account i was not risking it happening again i was doing the spins 1 by 1 and the same happened game froze/broke had to keep refreshing.
today though i did do 7 at once on other account in game download thing no problem, in this account on google chrome did 5 at once today and game froze again so had to refresh again so i dunno all times its froze on me so far its been in google chrome or goggle incognito
I have had this same 3 times so far... I wrote about it on other thread too..Quote:

I have same problem, i added crystals, and screen locked, i had to refresh and lost crystals,and got nothing from slotmachine :(
Mine freezes too but i dont think i have lost any crystals.
I am pretty sure that this happens when you get crystals from using the forge and then use the forge again without closing the Excelsior window in the meantime. It appears that these new crystals cause a problem and lock the game up.
Hi im also experiencing the same as Jax030310 , I load my gems and press the button and then it freezes loosing the gems ive put in and then I can not even close the window, I have to reboot the game. It did it last night and I thought it was just a glitch but it has done it again tonight (I cleared my Cashe yesterday but it made no difference and it has done it twice tonight the first time it did give me letters when I logged back in but the second time my 7 crystals got eaten but noting back when I rebooted.
I have tried both short letters & normal letters and it freezes both times then when I log back in it takes a long time and the script sequence seems to be out of sinc with text showing from the game before the main information box has cleared, I am getting frustrated as I was enjoying doing the new challenges it was good to have a new set of challenges, so a quick fix would be great please.
I haven't had a problem with that so far, and I got crystals several times. I have been counting the rewards too, no losses so far.Quote:

I tested if the game window size has something to do with the locking, but my Chromebook locks even when the game window is bigger than on my desktop.
The locking happens right after pressing the purple button (disables the X on top right corner) and before the animation starts.

Froze yesterday and twice so far today - within about 5 minutes. I've just relogged for the 3rd time in 10 minutes. Just seems to be random freezing
Does it no matter what i get from teh forge
My case is different, i invest 1 crystal and then 2, and the ecelsior didnt gave anything back, the frame screen appeared empty, no lock or freeze but nothing rewarded. Contacted support alredy
Same issue today.
Agreed. So far, so good *fingers crossed*Quote:

Excelsior continually (probably every 2 out of 5 times) locking for me half the time not sure if I am getting any reward at all for crystals. Can actually close it today as it was froze previously by switching letters but every subsequent time the crystals go down and no rewards appear.
Still happening as Mine has frozen for past 3 days when i add crystals. I thought i was having a computer bug but as it was at same task each time I came to forum and found this thread
it happens to me all the time, have to refresh the game, irritatingQuote:

What do you mean by "Fatbot" and how does it interact with The Settlers Online?Quote:

But my apologies if i caused confusion.
mine freezes too, and thee animation doesn't work when chrystals dropping into oven.
happened to me today - not had any problems at all up to now. Was making parts for the book, screen froze, could not close excelsior window had to log out and back in again. Crystal gone no rewards - luckily I only mash one crystal at a timeQuote:

game locked again today but didn't lose any crystals, refresh sorted it out
yes, second run on the excelsior always freezes... crystals are gone and no way of knowing what has returned (if anything)
refresh => all crystals gone
This was first reported on the 21st/9th ... any word on when a fix will be implemented ?
Even taking this very slowly doesn't stop the issue -its becoming a real pain :(
im having the same problem , when will it be fixed ?
Posted on behalf of Diwata: She was playing and the Excelsior screen showed no reward. She pressed the 'play' button a few times and nothing seemed to happen. The server was getting the play attempt and reducing her gems but there was no feedback on the Excelsior screen at all - it was only later she noticed the gems were missing.
If it happens again to her where no reward shows (naturally of course costing a crystal for nothing) she will close the window and refresh the game before trying again, but it seems very unfair that the server can be taking resources and the UI tells you nothing about it.
Im also having the same problem, It works fine the first spin each day but if i click to spin one more time the screen frezzes.
Had this issue also.
Excelsior screen locks up, can't be closed with no option other than a game reset.
Time taken to restart this game makes it a very annoying bug.
2 months and it's still happening. Losing gems daily because of this - any chance of a fix?
I had thought the last outage was supposed to have fixed that, but apparently not. I haven't been seeing the problem but it's clear others have. Some of the posts seem to point to exactly what default media players were being used on the assorted systems, but I don't remember a lot of details.
