Tom: site problem, or webtv?

Tom,

All day I've had problems in scribble and muddle -- in scribble, I'll hit enter to place a word and get an error message that the site isn't responding, and nothing I do lets me enter the word (I've tried reload, I've tried waiting a minute then trying to enter the word again, I've tried my back button, I've tried to reenter the main site, just keep getting that error message). I end up having leave the site, wait a few minutes, then reenter on the main page.
I can usually make a few plays, then it starts again.

In muddle, the time is wwaayyy off, sitting on enter for long periods of time, then I get the site not responding message. Once, the site listed my url as level3.net (which is what amber was using at that time - I'm strictly webtv), and often the game will end after what seems to me to be less than a minute (I can usually tell how much time I've used by the number of words I've entered, and how fast), I'll go back to the main page and have a word listed in Recent Cool Words, but not have the results of my game show in the ended games (lower left hand side of the page).

I know it's frequently webtv when I have problems playing, but the muddle game showing me as playing on level3 can't be webtv's fault, can it?

Just wondering is anyone else had problems.
