BruglioneI have seen more people complaining about this, but everytime when I try, it works fine...

Maybe it's your own connection, or maybe Utopia can explain this.

utopia.lvMyminicity servers are getting slower each day and, because there are mostly myminicity links in the exchange, it directly affects Supermode speed. In other words Supermode speed depends on the speed of remote servers, your internet connection and your PC. Supermode alone has speed of infinity and could process hundreds of visits each second.

I don't know why the servers are getting slower. Most probably it is because servers can not handle the load it receives from various link exchanges around the World. There are some groups of people who use tools that put heavy load on the myminicity servers by making too many parallel connections to them all day long.

Please note that web sites that use pop-ups does not guarantee links are visited. This is because pop-ups may close or change to next link before actual content is loaded into it. It may be faster to use pop-ups, but it also means that only part of links may actually receive visits. Supermode on the other hand will make sure that a link is visited or, if it can not be visited, will skip the link.

Warm regards,
Utopia

Tanks, uto. It can be my computer, it's two years old, but it can't be my internet, I've got broadband. Thanks for the help!

I wish they didn't... :(

TinaXWell another reason could be vacation time right now...so more ppl have free time to spend for their lil hobbies like MMC for example, but this won't explain why there are these probs almost 24h the last few days.

Beginning of the end??? ...well i hope not but the more ppl get unhappy with this game the more will leave it sooner or later if this miserable status isn't fixed soon...we will see

Sadly there is no information from MMC available anywhere or i didn't find it yet

I've been asking myself the same question, and I've been looking for some website/forum of MMC...
But I was unable to find anything, does anyone know if they have like a information page or forum?

utopia.lvOn Motion-Twin web site they say the following:

> Any help or information required in relation to our games will be exclusively provided by its corresponding technical support email or forum.

Though there is no e-mail or forum for myminicity.com.
And looks like help is provided only for commercial games.

Edit: I found Twinpedia forum, but it is in French and does not seem to be populated by living beings.

ElfridaI ran Supermode this morning and it flew through in just over ten minutes - yesterday it took well over three hours :-))))

I'm in the UK and it's about 10am-ish in the morning.

Let's hope everything's all back to normal *fingers crossed*
