I can believe that casinos try their best.
After an upgrade to Intercasino, I noticed that when exiting the casino the "yes" and "no" buttons on the "are you sure" pop-up had been sneakily reversed. Often, such clicking is done by a learned habit, so I suddenly found myself clicking "no" when clicking to exit - ending up back in the casinos wondering what happened!
Possibly, the "play for fun" and "play for real" buttons have been swapped. This could easily result in players accidentaly playing for real but believing they had clicked on fun mode as always (or play for points in this case).
If someone has an old screenshot of this entry point, it would be worth posting it and comparing with the current to see if the casino really has been up to some sneaky marketing tricks.
These tricks are no accident, there are professors of psychology who study human behaviour and work out these strategies. Recent documentaries... | | Read Entire Entry |

But seriously, I hope they fix it. As others have stated, your cache/cookies/etc don't have jack diddley squat to do with your internet connection.

After reading this thread I decided to check out jackpot Joy in the play mode and encountered the same error but only after an hour or so of playing roulette. The Wheel would no longer spin not that it matters on there since that is just animation anyway and the winning number is selected before their animation even starts but the error would pop up constantly until I cleared my cache then it would work correctly again. The problem with the bubble game seems to be different though than what the OP was experiencing but since their support feels that clearing the cache works on other server connection problem errors that sounds like their standard answer.
Have you tried out posting in their forums to see if others that play the Bubble game in real money mode have experienced the same problem? Perhaps if enough players in real money mode complain they will see that it is a unique error.

I decided to try and play the bubble game in play mode and lo and behold, I hit the bonus round a few times with no disconnects, NOT A SINGLE ONE....strange isn't it after all the disconnects in real mode on this game when the bonus was hit... but something else strange happened.
I didn't get paid on a few wins that were supposed to be paid on. If you look at my screenshots, I posted the paytable and the bubble wins (anything 3 things in a bubble is a win and the wild multiplies this) see if you can pick out the one that they cheated me out of even on PLAY MODE! The bonus round here has been a joke...another good game casino gone bad on bonus rounds..and payouts..geezes..

Just to reiterate on the cache subject a little bit more:
Since these are java games, there is no reason cache would even play a factor in this problem. Java programs from the web are compiled into .jar/.cab files.
Clearing the cache would just mean this jar/cab file is redownloaded once you load the game. If you have an old ersion in your cache, one would think that once a new ersion is uploaded to the server it would recognize this, and download/run the new one.
[edit]If it's not setup like that (I don't know why they would program it not to), then clearing your cache would make sure you have the new ersion running when you go back to that page. This also proves there's a "bug", as it's still happening
Bottom line is, this would happen all of the time, or none ... | | Read Entire Entry |

I have experienced the same exact problem and error messages, as well as type of responses you are referring to. I really like the site too, especially since it is no download, but I shouldn't have to feel deterred from playing a game because the software might go "awry". And, you're right, saying that you would receive the winnings whether you see it or not is like saying.. "If a tree falls and no one is around to hear it, does it make a noise?"

Funny how you get this "Error" only on the bonus rounds.
The "cache" reply is a bunch of BS. Your cache wouldn't do sh!t to cause a "connectivity" issue as they claim.
Even so, they can't look at your game logs to confirm the rounds when this happened? Why are they going by screenshots alone? Did they even consult with their Tech people before giving a canned response such as this?
[edit]Have you asked for your game logs?[/edit]
I just wonder if anyone else has run into this?

I have been playing at Jackpotjoy for a while now and have really enjoyed thier games a lot.
My concern is thier attitude on resolving software issues if indeed that is what it really is.
I have contacted them and sent them screen shots of the problems I had yesterday on one of thier games and all they say is, clean out your cache on your computer and the disconnections/errors might not happen.
