Keeps resetting my count :(

    I'm going to stop doing this now as it's infuriating 😦 I have tried about 6 times the images keep going out of sync when trying to view it in different colours, and when I refresh my page my view count / potential lenses and favourites vanish 😦

    Yes, it has happened to me as well. Also when I do click on the dashboard, it doesn't work as well.

    It is happening to me too. On my MacBook & my iMac. I keep doing up to 400+ and then it glitches and resets me at 236 every single time, and I lose everything. I'm going to try and keep going.

    This will sort itself out - the servers are very overloaded at the moment, and it will take a few hours for them catch up.

    The same thing happened last night - your classifications are not lost, and your counts will get updated. Sorry, but we never expected the overwhelming response we have had!

    Ha ha, yes, it's very addictive this astronomy business. But the more you do, the better you get at spotting them!

    Having got up to over 800, I was having a few problems with image and dashboards getting out of sync, so I quit the browser (Firefox 26.0 on a Mac running OS 10.9.1) (without clearing history, etc.) and restarted. After a few images, realised my counter had been set back to 650ish. I had previosuly stopped at 600 on my first session.

    Further to this - as a test, I cleared my browswer history, quit and restarted it, and on re-logging in, find my count was reset to 600 (where I had stopped on my first session this afternoon). Looks like the displayed count is from a local counter that is reset from the server on logging in?

    Yes, that is correct and because of the massive response the servers are out of sync. Will take a bit of time to catch up.

    Glad to see it's not just me then, I got the message "we've run out of subjects" twice and no more images appeared. With so many of us at it, surely we are bound to find something 😄

    Good morning moderator(s). Yes, like Bikberry, I got an "out of subjects" message last night, so went to bed! This morning the object count has updated to over a 1000. Looks like a good night's sleep worked wonders for the servers too 😃

    Glad to hear it go sorted out! Servers are temperamental things 😉

    Hoping mine will catch up on itself in that case as have looked at about 700 images and now it put me back to 0!! 😦
