As the thread title suggests, why does the pool server keep crashing? I believe that pool and snooker are run from the same server, meaning they both would collapse if something happened to the server. But what is the server collapsing a lot these days?

same m8 i dont know its happening to me as well

g_k reckons it might be the weather in america

"Connecting to the funkysnooker game server (please wait)...
Unable to connect to server (maybe firewall is blocking) attempting backup connection...
The game server is restarting - please wait"

Guess everyone has this message............

yep im on pool for now because i cant log in

someone needs to speak to nick

i'll text him

kl

Nick is aware of the issues, but as they are with the server provider they are out of his control.

Hopefully normal service will be resumed soon

It says that i am offline when i am not and wont let me log into the game :S

sure does

It has been like this for me since it logged me out in the middle of a "killer" game at about 3:30pm

same as palllllllllll

I think its been a terrorist attack on funky snooks

haha

I, for one, believe this is a sign. A sign of the end of the world. For two long years we'll see things like this. First the funkysnooker server goes down, then the facebook server goes down. Before we know it, the disease will have spread to Twitter. Whole civilisations will collapse. And then, at the end of it all, when 2013 is coming ever closer, the computers of the world will fight back.

No more will "Facebook" refer to a social networking site. Want to use Facebook? The computers fight back with a J K Rowling.

Want to use twitter? A flock of raging birds will be unleashed. Funkysnooker will be no more, your lives will be over. This, my friends, is the end of the world as we know it..!

lol

As long as Chelsea win the prem this year and the champions league the following year i can die a happy man.

No point hoping England win the world cup, lets be realistic.

I havent even able to go onto funky' homepages, just get diverted away from it.

Bcoz of the current overload in users...i just naturally assumed it was recieving maintenance.

Im sure it'll all be running smoothly soon

I agree with Dave, its a sign. Its a sign too many people are reliant on an online game. Yes, this is the first step in the world as we know it changing! Thousands of people pouring onto the streets, causing mass riots and leading to eventually wiping out of humanity. All because the funkysnooker/pool server closed down! Run people, run for your lives!!!

Zombie like people like 28 days later will appear on the vacant streets of all major Bristish cities, before using the channel tunnel to funnel their monster like ways into the European area, then will spread into Russia, the middle East, Africa and further towards asia, by then they will know how to steal boats and will head to Australia, before using planes to get to the americas. I am heading to antartica with my lap top, and hiding with the penguins, in my make shift penguin suit as made on Blue Peter once, this will escape the wrath of the zombies, anyone spots Gordon Brown amongst the zombies, get him first, bit like Labour in an election they will fall apart. Could be that skynet (too many Terminator films), has finally gone online, the pcs will soon attack us, (i get that when i miss a shot and head butt the screen) ouch!! ouch!!

Hasta la vista baby!!!!

lol
