I've tried closing all windows, retyping in the URL, refreshing, and nothing works!  Is anyone else besides us HTC people having this problem?

I think I'm more likely to be interested in a sim based on it's immersiveness, than in gameplay. Even if the flight model isn't historically accurate, the more I 'feel' like I'm there, the more I'll enjoy it. I'm just a visual person I guess. Eye candy really WORKS on me.

Before I get even more confused, are you saying you can't get to furball at all????

I can, it IS up.
 http://furball.dogfighter.com
or www.furball.dogfighter.com

Either way.
Once you get there, the poll is on the right side of the page. Click on your best guess for the front runner in 2001 and hit submit. It should refresh with the current results.

I know someone from Aces High is voting, hehe, cuz you're comin' up in the poll.

I have, and the 'The UN-official Dawn of Aces/Warbirds site' kinda gives it away as does the abundance of Warbirds and DoA links on the side as well as the predominatley Warbirds orientated news, don't get me wrong its a nice site but hardly impartial.

LOL Sorry Target!  I didn't look at the site closely enough, and I didn't realize you were the editor!

Target,

The Furball Poll link just refreshes the page and there doesn't seem to be a Submit button.

Funky!

Works from my end. Unless someone's already gotten on your puter and voted, there should be a list of flight sims with a submit button at the bottom, under Furball Poll in the far right column.

BTW, IP #'s are logged. Multiple votes from the same IP # are not allowed. If the same IP comes back it should just be the updated results, with no voting option.

Does the Aces High internet server have stable IP #'s assigned, rather than randomly assigned? Might be the problem.

Maybe the owners of the page blocked the "hitechcreations.com" domain!  

Works for me from every domain I tried (6 of them) on 6 different providers.

How come there is no link to AH?
