...be sure to re-log in if you're playing a long game before you submit your score. I lost the top score at Blackjack and a couple other decent scores before I finally figured it out. If you start the game as a guest it will tell you that your score will not be entered. But if you are logged in when you start and then get automatically logged out during a long game, your score will not be submitted. Additionally, depending on the game, you won't even get an error message. At least with Balloon Bomber there was a message stating that my score would not be submitted even though it didn't say why (later I played without logging in and it said the score would not be submitted because I was a guest.) When I tried to submit my Blackjack score (over 11K) it looked like it was going through and then did nothing. Needless to say I was pissed and ended up playing for 6 more hours but could never get back up that high. Don't let it happen to you.

On a related note, be careful with Black Jack. I missed out on a potential high score a couple of times because the game has a tendency to glitch. Once in a while after placing a bet both the "Deal" and "Clear" buttons gray out locking you out of any meaningful options.

That was the first game I played and it happened to me. I though I was just missing something!

I have had blackjack goof up on me a lot too. I haven't lost any high score submits, but it has happened when I have improved a score. Can be frustrating, but keep cracking! :)

Make sure your log in is checked "Remember me". That might help, at least for the time out log-offs.
