Wheel of Misfortune doesn't work on Mac?

Sat Jun 21, 2008 5:23 pm

Is it just me or does the Wheel of Misfortune not work on Macs? I've tried both Firefox and Safari, and neither works. The lever-pull animation happens, but it doesn't actually spin the wheel. Any ideas?

It works for me. That happened to me once, but it cleared up the next day.

I am using Windows XP with Firefox and it doesn't work at all. It shows the lever-pull animation, and that's it :(

Are you using Firefox 3, by any chance? I've had some problems with flash things (including some flash wheels) ever since I downloaded it two days ago. For the Wheel of Monotony, for example, I can click as much as I want on "claim prize" but it won't go anywhere unless I right click and select "open in new window."

Yes, I am using Firefox 3 (been using the betas for awhile) but Safari doesn't work either. I was pretty certain that Firefox 3 on Windows allowed the Wheel of Misfortune to work.

It's broken for me as well, using a Mac.

Try this link: click - it just bypasses that initial level animation.

It was working fine for me until I updated flash (I'm on XP). I didn't play it hardly ever anyways though...

Thanks, that works, although I landed on the Pant Devil :(
