There was a post about it on Facebook. Buzztime knows about the issue, and they are working on it.

I have the same issue. I didn't see anything on facebook. I thought NTN stopped posting there (or am I supposed to be friends with the gurus?)

Yes, it was on Red's page.

Hey guys,

Yeah, there is something buggy going on with PP... they were putting a team on the fix first thing this morning so we should see things reverting to where they should be shortly.

I'll update when I have more info.

I didn't lose my points however someone or something changed my Handle.

After Larry/CAVMAN passed away, I changed my handle to salute him. I
planned to leave it as CAVMAN until his memorial service later this month.

Sometime after last Wednesday, BT changed my handle back to LOWFI. I don't know if it was done deliberately or by some bug in their system. Maybe someone complained or thought it was inappropriate?

I figure that if there was a complaint, I would have received a private message to explain. As one was not received, I'm guessing this was caused by the same bug

add by edit: BT's "Known Issues" section now states that changes to home site and handles was caused by the same problem as the P+ points. The site also states they hope to get the fixes in today sometime

I'm missing a few tens of thousands of points too.

I don't really care about the Showdown tournament.

If BT offered a 30 minute trivia game where the top score won a million dollars, but opposite that game they offered a 30 minute game where you received a million P+ points if you broke 10k, which one would you play? You can't play both, you can't double dip. You have to choose one or the other.

BO

Looks like my points are back.

Anybody else out there have this problem??

I logged on the BT site today, and I LOST Players Plus Points...I had just crossed th 22M mark about 4 days ago. I log in today and I have 30,000 points LESS than 22M....should have about 30,000 MORE than 22M...I think something screwed up w/ either BT or my acct....

Anyways, if anyone else is having this problem, or can offer info, contact me via e-mail or PM via BT, as I honestly do not access this site too frequently. Thanks for any & all help & considerations in advance....

A lot of players have had several thousand points disappear, including me. BT has a notice that they are looking into it. Hopefully, it won't end up with the same result of a couple years ago when a few weeks of points totally disappeared and BT apologized for losing them. We never got them and we were told that we weren't going to get them.

They say I passed 4.8m last week but it is showing 4.7915m currently. I didn't remember I'd rather they fix the Showdown stat problem. Since it is during a tournament, it is vastly more important than a few thousand p+ points.

The only way I could get top score in the nation is in a team effort, and even then, with the team I play on, odds are they'd still beat me to be the top in the nation. I would, however, help anyone who wanted to try for the million, and if they hit it, I'd help them enjoy their winnings.

$1,000,000 or 1,000,000 P+? Can I use the phone gambit? Paper references? Computers? Ken Jennings? Can the game be lag free? Do I get to use as many Playmakers as I want? Does the game have a specific theme or topic? As a self-glorifying crapster, I know my limitations. Punk Rock game, I'm in. Twi-Hard...just give me the P+. From participating in various promotions and tourneys, I know that I wouldn't fare well in a Showdown format, even if everyone played solo, like I do. However, in a Countdown game, I'd go for the money. I can guess my way to a 15K game or two every month or so.

I seem to have picked up about 3,000 points that were "missing". Maybe I have to go back to my home site to let the server communicate with the mother ship again before the database is fully recompiled. Or maybe I'm just completely ignorant of how these things work For me its only about 8,000 points..not a significant amount. Not enough to worry about if I don't get them. If I was missing 80-100,000, I might not be as blase. As for BO's question: Although I like the points as a rough measure of how much time I've played with these little boxes answering trivia questions, if I had to choose between points and money..I'd take the money.

I was just inferring that I only get on scaratings maybe once every two weeks (if that) and wasn't sure if this topic would still be discussed.....I see that it still is......
