Every Friday, hoping it's not completely broken

Seems my arch nemesis "the server slowdown bug" has once again shown up.
SoCoder2 is more or less working as expected, but occasionally glitches out, seemingly ending up with Google complaining about the server, or something.
I've not seen such an error, but I can hazard a guess that it's down to the same old glitch as the last time.

I've brought back the old ServerTimeout code, which returns an error when the server's being bitchy, rather than just leave you with a "no response" thing.
That should at least help. I think.. maybe..

I really need to track down what's causing that, so I've spent the past couple of days throwing everything I can think of at the problem.

Still no idea, but I'm determined to find it, this time!!

A wonderful attempt.
He's not quite succeeded.. ASMs a killer! But that's what practice is for, and it's a great learning experience.
Hopefully he'll at least finish the game off, outside the confines of the week.

 		That cockatoo thinks he's Fred Dibnah!

That Amsoft vid was intersting - I didn;t know they'd released so many non-Roland games!

Love that Yoshi Remix but then I love pretty much anything Yoshi!
