Mardi Gras Carnival event

[MacIronhawk]

When I log on test it says could not connect to gameserver.test.piratesonline.com:6776. Try again?
Oh, I see. They emailed me saying ever once in a while when they update I have to tell my firewall to allow pirates.

I have to see this carnival.

EDIT: Cool. I wonder why they put this on test, though.

they are probably testing it for open, this will probably be an easter special, search for it

Erm, I get that every time I log on to test (after 60 or 90 seconds) then click OK to actually connect. Doesn't everyone?

Nope, I never got that until yesterday. I had to make it so my firewall will let pirates in but now it takes about 90 seconds to load and I see a grey screen.
I never even experienced that on my old computer.


That madri gras thing was fun. I got ten tonics from that pork.

I have not logged back into test since they shut down for maintenance last night.
I'll try tonight......

I have been seeing this also. Been doing it almost any time I switch tasks. forums here, to a different account etc. I have been wondering if maybe its in explorer or something.

I use to hit the OK, but was getting lag and weird effects going on. Now I cancel, and second time always works.
