icon A very strange way of keeping me from connecting (0)  
I have tried to connect both TCB and GatEB to Caravelnet, but the result is whenever I get onto either game, a window appears saying "attempting to connect to caravelnet" with a number right at the start that increses by 1 every second. I can get rid of it by pressing Esc, but then it stops trying to connect, although wether that makes any diference is still pretty unlikely. I've tried letting that happen for a while, while I went to do something un DROD related, and when I get back, the window is still there, with stupidly large number, still counting up. Anyone have any idea what's wrong?

What does the CaravelNet connection icon show in the top corner of the main Title Screen? Also, can you see the news marquee text scrolling along the bottom of the Title Screen?

Yes there is text, but it seems to be stuck at that game night announcement, (if that means anything) and the symbol looks kind of like a black flagpole with green radio waves coming out of the ball on top of it.

This is for both of the games that have the problem, if anyone doesn't find that to be obvious.

Do you have a CaravelNet subscription?

According to your account information, you don't have it right now.

If you had it before, then it's likely that it's expired.
