Did it go through the cache generation before locking or was it immediate?

If you wanna reproduce this (or possibly this is a diff one), I think this is how it goes.  Log on to the MA.  Log out.  THEN click video settings.  THEN try to get back into the MA.

IIRC this freezes me up.  Has for several patches now.

It was immediate. Once I get to cache generation, all is well. I have subsequently been able to play the game without problems -- with the new settings -- but even after that, I'll lock after accessing the offline video settings page.
