I was playing Pirate Galaxy through Armor Games today.
A message appeared that told me that the server got disconnected.
I cannot play the game anymore by just using my Armor Games login account.
I am now getting a login screen with a Portal Selection of:
- Slipscreen Studios
- Gamigo
- Kalicanthus

So, I now need an account with one of these sites? I can't play with just my Armor Games login account anymore?

Did you try to refresh the game page and see whether the ArmorGames login shows up again? That wasn't clear in your OP K_Drive... =)

The server disconnection is something rather common... it could be due to your failing internet connection that you were cut off from the game servers as well by the way...

I go to the Armor Games web page.
I log into Armor Games on the top of this web page.
I click on the Pirate Galaxy link/icon.
The game starts.
I get my Player Selection window.
I selected my player.
The animation with the drifting asteroids continues for some time (10 seconds or more?).
Then, the new login fields appear on the bottom of the page.

Here is what I am seeing:

As you can see from the linked image, I am on the Armor Games page.
And, you can see the new login area.
(I drew the red arrows on the screenshot.)

I can't access the link from my mobile phone as it is not showing as a link properly right now... I'll have to get to a computer to see it, so you'll have to hang on for a moment there, ok?

No hurry.

Yes - I messed up the first link. It seems to be an image. That's why I entered the second message with link that you could copy/paste.

I am not in a big hurry. It was just a surprise that I was able to play just fine with my Armor Games account up until the server disconnected. When I managed to reconnect, I could only get the new login window.

I am wondering of the disconnect/reconnect was some switchover to having to use the new login fields.

I just had a look at your link and I see what you mean there...

To my knowledge, you should always be going back to the game via the ArmorGames website whenever the connection fails. This, however, looks like an external login option for the game, not the AG version.

Have you tried loggin in with your ArmorGames data for this option yet? It might be that the server 'kicked you out' when it had a hickup and didn't automatically reconnect to your ArmorGames information again. =)

Hmmm...Today I was able to log in at Armor Games and play Pirates Galaxy.
Strange. Well, I am going to go shoot some ships. If I get the other login screen, I will post again.

Alright, so the problem has been solved now then? Good! =)

So I'll lock this thread as it has been solved. And if the problem resurfaces for you, please make a new thread about it here then, ok? Thanx!
