I cleared the temporary files, but it still tells me the contest is closed, to try again tomorrow.   I'll try again then, I guess.   I've never had anything like this happen.

We are going to try some different sound settings to see if we can improve the speed for those experiencing this slow multiplier issue. I will post testing instructions when it's ready. If it fixes it, we'll add the change to the contest.

We've placed a new version of the game up on the site (not the contest version... the normal games). If someone experiencing the slowdown issue with sound on could try it out and let me know, that would be great. 1) Go to Play Video Poker2) Choose Good Times Pay Poker (multi-hand)3) Leave the sound ON and play max bet.

Thanks for the feedback, faygo. I think we need to clarify the issue or
if there is more than one. People with issues, please report whether it
is issue A or B below, or both:

A) Multipliers move more slowly across the screen with the sound on, than when it is muted

B) I can not DRAW with the sound on until the multipliers have finished moving, but can draw more quickly with the sound off.A new version is up, so try that first, then answer if you were experiencing A or B above, and whether it has been fixed.This new version is in the normal games for testing, NOT the current contest so please confirm that is what you were testing when you post whether it was fixed.

The system works much quicker with the sound off.With the sound on you have to wait until all 3 mutipliers are up and then it allows you to deal..  I have noticed playing with the sound off on my system and the sound turned off on your screen  allows me to play probably 4 times quicker.  Bear's Mom

Bear's Mom, please try the non-contest version and let me know if it works better for you. See my 2 posts above this one.
