Cookie error between computers?

c6corvette Monday, 4/25/2011

This is my first time posting here, so bear with me. This is the second time and 3/4th tournament in which my picks were somehow not saved. if you check my card (c6corvette) you'll see there are a bunch of blank spots. I am 1000% sure I entered picks- furthermore, on one of the last ones I picked the winner correctly (I could have even won). But my picks were somehow forgotten when the tournament was over. I alternate between two computers, so the only reason I can think of for this happening is some kind of error with cookies (I delete all mine, as well as my browsing history) between the two computers. Is there any solution for this? I entered picks for the upcoming tournament and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they are remembered. I can post them just in case if you want.

I access from two computers and an iphone...never had any issues but I don't go through and delete my cookies very often.
But you can't make picks unless you are logged in so I"m not sure what that is all about.

Hmmm...it could be a browser issue. Corvette, what browser are you using? Knowing will help be test and debug.

The league should work on all current browsers, IE8+, Firefox 3+ and Chrome. I haven't tested Safari for Mac but that shouldn't be a problem either. Anything less than that, like IE7 may have issues and cause problems...and the solution to that is to update your browser.

I'll double check your entries in the database tonight and post back with confirmation.

If you login and go back to submit your picks, it should show your saved picks. If it doesn't show your picks, then they're not getting saved. If they are showing up then they were saved because none of that data is stored in cookies. In fact, I'm not really storing much data in any cookies.

Okay it says my picks for today are shown, but I haven't tried on my other computer (desktop) yet- will try as soon as possible.

I use internet explorer 8 on my laptop and IE7 on my desktop.

EDIT: just checked and the picks I just submitted are shown as having had been submitted. We'll see if they survive the tally though.

I checked the database and Corvette's picks are in there, so that's the most I can do and say today. Since nobody else has reported any problems, I don't want to start digging around and possibly make things worse until I can troubleshoot further or get some specific errors.

I'll make a note to check your records out this weekend when the results are submitted.

However, I would strongly suggest you update to Internet Explorer 8. Not only can I guarantee that the League will work 100%, but your experience on other web sites will be better as well.
