The links that allow one to purchase Cnet still seem to link to plimus pages, which are no longer functional, since they have been updated. The following page links to the wrong order page. (and I don't know if there are any that are right)

Quick! I only have one week left!

Hrm. While I have no idea why the Plimus link isn't working again the BMT link seems to be fine: https://secure.bmtmicro.com/servlets/Orders.ShoppingCart?CID=2&PRODUCTID=74770001

Ok, thanks I'm glad my membership won't run out for another year.

Man, is there no end to Plimus causing problems? Reverted the link back to BMT.

I just mention this,
but I never have had problems with Plimus.
I live in Belgium(Europe) and I use my VISA-card.
Everything I bought from DROD was with Plimus (Incl.: GatEB and recently DMOD download)

Yeah, I have no idea what the problem is that others are experiencing.

It's happening to me too, Plimus refuses to show me anything but an error page. Not only that, but the 3 months CaravelNet membership link doesn't work still because of that. I'm not sure if it's something on BMT's end, but since I've purchased GatEB from them, I should have received a Caravel email about the 1-month of CaravelNet that comes with it along with access to Flood Warning, right? It's only been one day, mind you, so it might take time to process, though I've obviously already started playing and sometimes chatting between puzzles is a nice way to spend time too.

I've never seen this error page. Would you please post a screenshot of it here?

I'm not sure what you mean by this. The CaravelNet links are pointing to BMT Micro, not Plimus.

Yes, you should have received a registration e-mail from Caravel. Make sure your spam folder hasn't gobbled it.

Thanks to Znirk for taking the screenshot, that is exactly the same error I get.

Both links now point to BMT. I tried to check for 3 months CaravelNet about 5 days ago and it had not been BMT then, I guess I should have checked again before talking about it. I've also looked through my e-mails, I didn't receive anything from CaravelGames in the spam folder or in my inbox since a very long time ago. If need be, I can take a screenshot of my receipt and send it to support@caravelgames.com for a new link?

Sorry for the trouble. Yeah, that's all you'd need to do.

I have not received any email from CN in over a week now, so I assume the server is down again...?

Unfortunately, yes. We're working to find a more permanent solution to this problem.
