That's good to know. The last time someone posted an external link there, the post got removed. Perhaps they have loosened up on that rule.

Won't be happening again. The email/password issue has occurred again. The amount of time it would take to get Game Manager up and running again simply isn't worth it. Besides, (and I don't know if this has happened to anyone else or that this is a result on to my situation,) when I log on to BFG home page and look at My History nearly half, if not more, of games that I purchased aren't even available for me to download anymore. Instead when I open the game it says that I am offered one game credit. So, even if I wanted to download some more purchased games, I wouldn't be able to. Infuriating to say the least.

I am so sorry to hear this, rtrooney! I was actually just thinking about you a little earlier today because you had gone quiet; I thought maybe you were busy enjoying your games. I am actually afraid to even look at anything in my Big Fish accounts if I don't have to. I don't want to go looking for trouble because I don't think I could handle what has been happening with you.

Rtrooney, I just looked at my Purchase History and am not seeing anything like you describe - and haven't had the experience of being offered one game credit when I open a game. So, color me confused.

I’m so sorry to read of these BF issues …. 🙄

The only thing I’ve personally noticed is that lately Game Manager asks me to log in more frequently than it ever used to.

Do you have the latest version of the Game Manager, Mad? The latest version was supposed to fix that issue (and it did for me).

I don’t know if I do, Marian. I suppose I’d have to uninstall and reinstall to find out ?? 🙂

Open the GM and go to Options and then to About: you will then see "check for updates." My version is 4.0.1.5 (4.0).

I don't have that version but won't mess with it unless I have to.

I did just fine with the update and it also fixed my issue about the GM logging me out all the time, so I am happy it's there. But if all is well otherwise, I see no need at this time to do the update.

Thank you very much, Marian.

I just did that and I was told I have the latest version

Great, Mad! I hope you notice an improvement with your issue; I certainly did.

Thanks, Marian 👍

This is sort of a follow up to the Elephant Games Statement post but not just about Elephant. I'm of the opinion that Big Fish is getting rid of the (in my opinion) better developers. Maybe you can keep us posted on whatever you might see Marian?

I sure will, ob. I don't think it is a question of getting rid of the better developers so much as it is a matter of terminating the contracts with all of the HOPA developers. Domini and 5 BN are not involved because they have not had an exclusive contract with Big Fish for a few years now.

I don't know or understand anything about the contracts. So, does that mean that new Elephant games may still come to Big Fish?

I don't know, ob. What it does mean is that we will be seeing Elephant Games showing up first on places like Steam and Google Play, I would imagine. It seems a possibility that Big Fish would release their games later on, yes, but we don't know for sure. It does seem like most of these HOPAs get passed around to other sites later on after their initial release.

And what kind of games will Elephant be focusing on? Again, we will just have to stay tuned. They may spend most of their time developing games for mobile now, but again we will have to wait and see.

Thanks for providing any and all information that you can, Marian! I surely appreciate you!

Thanks, ob! I wish I knew more.
