Marker Game problems

I have the same problem with a marker game "Lauritz's Tent Marker Game" with guid = 30427bef-b4c8-4a02-9f95-58642171ec8c. I got the game working by reloading it into a new marker game, "Lauritz's Reloaded Tent Marker Game", from my offline copy. The problem I now have is I want to delete the original version but can't since it always shows "---LOADING---".

I was able to delete its appearance in WhoM but it still appears in my Avatar's (Lauritz's) D'ni-Ae'gura listing. It also still appears in my other Avatars' (Solo, Referee and Ref) listings too. How can I remove this marker game without removing my Avatars? It is annoying having the corrupted game listed. I know there are several other game players that have used this marker game and now can't and would like to have it removed from their listings too.

If there is no way for me to delete it myself could someone with access remove it from the server?

Thank you,

Lauritz

I gave it another try deleting the corrupted marker game using WhoM. It worked. Don't know if it was because I deleted it from all my avatars in my account as opposed to deleting it from just my Lauritz avatar which I tried at first or if I just didn't do it right the first time. Anyway, all is good now.

In the past I've had this marker game problem come up if I tried to edit the game after I had already distributed copies to other players. I made a rule for myself that once the game was distributed, no more editing.

There's no general rule concerning the "breaking of one's marker game". I corrupted in the past my own private games just because it was ... sunny outside that day when I opened them! I hope I don't have to explain furthermore the matter here.

You know it's only a text file and it can get corrupted easily. The only way I know to get rid of them is by using WhoM. Do not bother Cyan with this. This is why you must always make a backup of your own game using the MarkerEditor.

With WhoM & MarkerEditor, you're in business! :wink:
