I can connect and already played a game (windows 7). Pitty is only that the map does not work (you can not pick the side cards from the map but you have to take it from your sides :-(. As well you can not lokk at the sides you played them face down. Everything else worked normal.

Cheers

and one of the 1-player table isn't working, it fails to connect. I guess some of the 2-player table will have the same issue but i didn't have the chance to try it.

i would suggest to those people who can't connect, to make a backup of their .gccg folder and create a new username. If you manage to connect, i can grant you guys your old passwords later today, and see if it works.

I created a new (old) account "Beornd" and used my old password - but its not possible to reactivate my old account "beornd1963" with the saved password so if possible please marcos sent it to me.

there seems to be a problem with those affected accounts, i tried giving makinal his password but it didn't worked. We'll have to wait and see who and how can it be fixed...

I was looking further into the failing accounts and for some reason the user database files for both Makinal and beornd1963 just say NULL - nothing else. I've restored both of those user database files from last month's backup so you should be able to log into them now. The restored user accounts are as of the 18th of last month.

Let me know if any other users have issues.
