I second that. Slow connection users are disadvantaged in almost every aspect of the game, but restocking especially. They really should do something to make it more fair :(


They're advantaged in the games though, I think. ^_^

not really, the games take forever to load, and they lag so much, especially on the higher qualities. I never play flash games on anything but 'low' now, but still it lags alot. in the middle of a game it will pause for a second then back to normal, then pause, and so on which makes it really hard to get the timing right eg. in whack a kass, zurroball etc.

As for a solution... well tnt have come up with some radical ideas in the past, I'm sure they could find a solution to this also if they really thought about it. I can't think of anything but then I'm not employed to..

I like the system that was going on in the igloo during the chomby-hungry period.Restocks occur every minutem however, you can only buy an item every other restock. That should work a lot better than the current system

Out of interest how much difference would it make if TNT made the shops and igloo restock between randomly every 4-5 minutes compared to every 8 minutes and compared to every mintue?
