Hello! For the last few times I've played Fishing (https://subeta.net/games/fishing.php), I get shown the map where I choose a spot and then get the page saying it was my first try & that I need to go again. I do so and click my 2nd space, however the next page tells me that I only have 2 moves left, not 3. I click the Pick another spot! button, choose one more spot, and my game ends. I still get a prize, but with the game not working as intended, it's hard to win anything worthwhile.

I use Google Chrome on Windows 7. The issue feels like each click on Pick another spot! counts as one of the 5 tries, since I click it twice over the 3 tries I get. I haven't tried any troubleshooting yet (such as clearing my browser history) beyond checking if it's a repeatable bug as I can only play once an hour. Has this affected anyone else, and if so, what was done to fix it (or attempt to fix it)?

Edit: Clearing the browser cache did not fix it.

I just want to understand, are you clicking twice on the map or do you mean it is like it is counting when you go back to the map? I just tried fishing and I got all 5 tries.

I meant that it is counting when I go back to the map. Although, it's starting to become less repeatable; I'm now sometimes getting 4 or all 5 tries when I play, so it may have had something to do with the recent load on the servers that is starting to lessen.

Yeah it sounds like the lag was causing it to load more than once...I know they are working on the lag as much as possible.

I play this game a lot I'm number 2 on the HST. Any irregularity in how the site works will mess with this game. In particular if it thinks you've navigated away from the game or submitted a refresh, it will randomly choose a spot for you and use up one of your turns. It has always done this.

I don't think this is a lag issue. Fishing has been double counting moves for me for months. There are a few things around the site the behave the same way, Slots being another (I can't play at all because it always tells me to stop refreshing the page). It's related to my browser somehow - it only happens when I'm using Chrome. I've tested other browsers and everything works fine on them. It also seems localised to subeta; I've not noticed any similar effects on any other sites while using Chrome.

The same thing happens to me when I try Slots, too.

With Fishing starting to reliably skip turns again, I guess I'll play the games on a different browser. Oh well. Thanks for the responses, everyone!
