Firefox issue with "Dog Day Drags" and "Checkered Flag V"?
Not sure if it's just me, but I was trying to submit my brackets on Firefox 5.0 (it's worked every time before) for "Dog Day Drags" and "Checkered Flag V" and it wouldn't let me choose cars and some of the pictures weren't loading. I tried Internet Explorer, but couldn't log in. After trying Google Chrome it worked. The Internet Explorer I used was a plugin for Firefox, so that still might be Firefox related. Again, I'm not sure if this is just me, but I wanted to make sure to let you guys know and Brian just in case it's not just me.

The pictures not loading could be completely unrelated. All the photos are hosted at Flickr, so if they're slow, I'm slow.
I swear to God that I submitted brackets (and I'm on Firefox) but, evidently, either I picked every race wrong or my brackets weren't registered.
The "You got 0 Points" email today, received while I was in an airport on my way home from a week's family vacation, was a sad way to find out that I didn't have a chance of earning a season victory.
Something is clearly amiss then somewhere along the line because I just looked Seattle's picks in the database and there aren't any. There were no records for either of these last 2 bracket.
@seattlegreyy - You used Firefox...can you tell me what version, and also when did you submit your picks, what day and make a guess at time...?
Dammit, this makes me mad. Nothing has changed on my end for months and now this at the end of the season. Ggggrrrr...I'll be perplexed if Firefox is the problem. There isn't anything so fancy going on in the game that I would expect it to confuse Firefox.
If anyone wants some freebie points for this screw up, PM me. So sorry.
And since we're going into the championship race, anyone that had issues this past weekend or just wants to be safe...post here or PM me when you submit your picks this week. I'll jump in and verify that your records are in the database.
I'm mad I have to troubleshoot going into the last race but it's the only way I'll be able to track down the bug since it's only being experienced by a few people. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hmm...interesting, thanks for the report. I admit I haven't tried any of the game with Firefox 5 yet...heck, I'm still driving FF3! ...and as a "web guy" that's kind of embarrassing so don't tell anyone. I'll do some updates and give it a try. If Chrome is working, I'd just say to use that then, at least for now.
