Good luck!Wink

Update:
So I've been using Google Chrome for the whole day, and it hasn't glitched once (It's also MUCH faster). I guess I'll keep this browser for at least browsing WBO, because for some reason YouTube won't work on GC for me.
Thanks for the help!

Yup that's why I love Google Chrome.
Youtube might not work on your GC if you don't have the newest version of the Adobe Player, maybe that's the problem.

I'll add an attachment with my browser.

I use google chrome and I get the same problem also!

If possible, do try using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Internet Explorer is not the best.

If the layout does not appear for some pages, have you tried just refreshing while on that page ? Sometimes, it is simply a very temporary disturbance, and the layout comes back. If it happens for all your pages, then of course there is a problem.


Benkei, also, while we do want tournaments in general to happen, we want a competitive and fair environment as well for organized play, and allowing the three different generations does not seem to belong in those standards. I do not know if most people would necessarily use the best HMS Beyblades, instead of those that they actually still own, like Driger MS ...

I agree, its not the best. I have refreshed the page, but it really got annoying after the first couple of days. So far, the site hasn't glitched with GC so far.

Just for the record, HMS and Plastics have never been prohibited in the WBO. Obviously, MFB would not be allowed in the Plastic format, and HMS in the Plastic format, vice versa, etc but that's why we have an Open format, where all systems can be used together in a tournament.

Also, it's up to the tournament organizers as to what format is used in a tournament (Plastic, HMS, Standard or Open). MFB is the most current system and is the standard so many prefer to host Standard format tournaments.
Whenever I try to put my pin on the map I fill everything out, it shows me where I live and I'm like "Yes, I Live Here!" and I click it and then it goes... "Oops! You forgot something!" even though I'm pretty sure I'm not forgetting anything.
Usermap is buggy atm, sorry. ;[
If I were to host a WBO tournament in Hong Kong, will the currency of the $5 entry fee be in USD? Also, how will members pay their entry fees on the day (assuming they do not own a Blader Passport)?

They have to give the equivalent of five American dollars (more or less : if they are supposed to give half coins, then obviously it will be rounded up or down), and somebody needs to be able to deposit that money and send it to us by Paypal.

It depends on the creator of that plugin, who is not a member here obviously. The usermap stopped working once we updated that plugin ...
Is there a was to 'subscribe' to someone, so that each time that user creates a thread, you are alerted?
Hi I'm trying to change my avatar, but when i try uploading the new image the old avatar still remains on my profile, am I doing something wrong?

Sometimes, you just need to refresh a few times, and the new one will appear.

Is it supposed to be the Pegasis ?
Yep... Chocked_2, How come did you know..., lol whatever thanks Eee

For me it showed. It depends though : sometimes I do not instantly see people's new avatars, I have to refresh. Is your problem solved then ?
Yes i am gratified, thanks for the attention.
Does anyone have any idea why my .gif animation isn't working as my avatar? It's 1.39mb, so it's larger than the max. file size. Could this be why there's a frame of the animation and not the actual movement?

Thanks.
Perhaps. Have you simply uploaded directly from your computer, or did you host it on imageshack.us, for instance ? Sometimes, direct upload does not make animations work.
