Have you been sending it everyday?


Everyday, I start at 30 minutes past midnight and have the max send time no more than 6 hours. I had it send for 12 hours for the 5 plays per game and 8 hours for the days with 10 plays per game. Also the games are randomized and I have the lists longer than my max send time so I can delete the first few games at the top to make it harder to find a pattern.

Also when I'm not in the mood for prepping my list, I would run Abrosia which would be every other day instead.

I think I know what happened. On the day for 5 plays per game, the BTY game is in my list so I changed one score and time from that game accordingly so I can grab that small prize in the process. The next day, I copied and pasted the entire list to double the plays easily but I thought I changed the BTY score back. When I opened the list in the SS and sort it out, there were 2 of those scores. My guess is that I changed a score back, but there was still one left. Even then, I checked the log and it never reached that game to send those scores. Back in the dark here...

Please bother to actually read the entire guide, and the posts after this. Your question has already been answered, repeatedly. Do atleast 3% of the work and read the answer yourself.

The edition on the website didn't work for me, so I'm trying the mirror you posted! :) Will update.

Neither work for me O_o; downloaded, click "Score Sender" - just makes the weird no command noise and does nothing..

No, I just unzip the file, click "Score Sender", it looks like its about to load, then makes the noise? Are there some sort of files I'm missing?

Try reading the first post.

Second, if the program won't start at all, you'll need to adjust the compatibility. Right click the program, go to properties, switch to thecompatibility tab, then change it to Windows 95.

You extracted everything right? Also, what OS are you using?

Ive read the guide, downloaded the score sender into the same file as the windows files, extractted them...I'm at work now - here I've installed it, so I can see the icon - however it doesnt actually start up when I click the icon...

Maybe I'm missing a step? I don't know.

Tell us your Operating System so we can actually help. Without it we cannot figure out why you can't change the compatibility, even though you should be able to, heck, it should have it's own tab.

I click it says

"COMDLG32.OCX or one of its depencancies is not correctly registered : a file missing or invalid"

See THAT is actually telling us what's wrong. You need the exact .ocx file, and you either need to put it in the same folder as the score sender or in the Windows 32 folder.

The file. GET THIS.

Google the file name. Go to the ocxdump website. Download the file. I believe there are a couple more ocx files you'll need.

After you've gotten all the files, it should work.

If you drop it in the folder and it's still not working...

I'm pretty sure that this file is a piece of the VB6 runtime files I mentioned to install. The link is in the tutorial under How Do I Use the Score Sender?

To hasten the process, though... here's the link again.
