    Now that’s a blast from the past. Use to play this decades ago when at 6th form.

    Think we played the expansion which allowed for 4 blocks wrapping round on themselves. But we rarely played the endgame Judges intervention correctly, just preferring to carry on with cascading destruction.

    That game and little box Illuminati were staples in our group. Steve Jackson Games is still pootling along, but not sure what became of the Block Mania lot.

    (Is there an official sarcasm font\tag for this forum? )

    Thanks for reviving the post, will add the links (carefully) as a separate post on thread.

    Didn’t realise the link would display! Else would have been more careful.

    But at least we know an address on it’s own will display fine, but if wrapped in a link it can cause disappearances.

    Have managed to make my topic disappear again (multiple times), think I’ve found the cause.

    I switched to IE from Chrome and copied and pasted just the text of my post with no links\formatting etc. This saved and started the topic successfully, it was fully visible in the list in the ‘clubs’ section.

    I then edited to add an hyperlink in, and this saved and updated fine. I then added further links and like magic the entire topic disappeared. Have managed to repeat it once again and the offending link is a particularly long one to Google Maps. The text of the link is below, I suspect the comma’s might be to blame.

    https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=abbey+road+baptist+barrow&hl=en-GB&ll=54.120326,-3.220496&spn=0.008866,0.022724&sll=53.800651,-4.064941&sspn=9.155704,23.269043&hq=abbey+road+baptist+barrow&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A

    The following might also be of interest as the invisible topics appear to still exist in the aether somewhere. This one includes a reply I made!

    Furness Wargamers, Cumbria

    My first post (to the clubs board) seems to have vanished\not submitted. It did have three URL’s in it and the main body was copied from an existing post on another forum, so did have some carried over formatting, but it appeared well formed with closing tags etc.

    Browser is Chrome, and was logged in via main page.

    Hitting ‘Submit’ sent me to a reply page for the topic, so is it in limbo somewhere?
