Yup. The title pretty much says it all.
Whenever I try to join or host a game, it returns a syntax error and nothing more happens.

Intel Core 2 Duo

667 MHz

OS X 10.6.4. Snow Leopard

This happened to me frequently when hosting websites stopped the party and therefore the links embedded in the game were jacked.

After selecting "use dedicated servers..." in the settings menu, I don't have the problem anymore.

Same happens to me unless the world I'm joining/hosting is one of those bare-basic "gray blocks with hexagons on them" worlds.

However, when I do It on an older imac we have, it works.

Correct.
There are no bugs on Mars Explorer game or site.
They are IN the game and the site. *LOL*
 
Code with no errors is non-existant, and so is the rhinoceros!
- They don't exist. It's all make believe.

I believe you Kruncher. The thing that is happening to us right now is most likely a flaw with the Master server that hosts the games.

Uh... no. The master server CONNECTS clients to servers through an IP list and a facilitator. It does not handle the Whirld loading. It is most likely Aubrey's file hosting center that is down - causing the listed files to become unusable. The block worlds work fine because they are hosted on FlyClub's geiodo.com server (wordpress based).

A temporary workaround for this bug is to use the links at my Whirld Backup Post.
