A complete n00b to Fumbbl, I tried to start a game with another rookie. we followed the advice in the "An easier way" part of the Setting up a game help section, and after a little bit of faffing seemed to have got a game launched. However the dialogue box contained the following:

Server trying connection

Listen Thread IO Exception
Connection reset


Closing local sockets


Which repeated.
Was there some problem our end or at FUMBBLS?

many thanks for any help that follows.

could be, that the proxy wasn't working, so it wasn't your fault. other advice might not be acquired from me.

Thank you flyor. Any reply that suggests I might not be incompetent is gratefully recieved. I'll have to try a game some other time.

make sure you have a up to date version of java and microsoft '.net' package

make sure you are on the latest version of javabowl

for your first game start the client manually (/javabowl/bbowl.jar)

make sure you have checked fumbbl login in the javabowl options

check 'net server'
server:fumbbl.com
port:8081 (8081 - 8084)
proxy:iamamadeupproxy
team1:http://fumbbl.com/teams/Khaine%27s+Korpses.html
