Hello Oniana and Barram,


After any maintenance a few things may change:

- the IP address of the realm (we don't own the IP's and lease them from AT&T who may allocate IP's according to their needs)

- old temp files don't sync with new reset data

So let's attack both things at the same time:

- delete the Cache Æ’older (old temp files)
- flush your DNS (breaks old connection and recreates a new link to the realm):

To flush the DNS cache go into the Terminal (Go > Utilities > Terminal) and type in the following:

For Leopard (10.5) and Snow Leopard (10.6):
dscacheutil -flushcache
- press Return

For Tiger (10.4) and Panther (10.3):
lookupd -flushcache
- press Return

( The system will not give any type of acknowledgment after you run the command. )

Try the game after performing these commands.


No matter how simple the ??? seem, we were all nbs at one time.
