Can't Make a New Storygame

8 years ago

I'm trying to make a large storygame, Griffin, but it won't even let me start! Whenever I press [edit], it displays this error message:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0006'

Overflow: 'CInt'

/my/creator/gamePage.vbs, line 142

Anybody know what this means?

"CInt" has overflowed, meaning it's been given a value too big for it to contain. From this, my guess would be that the same issue that had previously affected image uploading and dueling has somehow reached the storygame editor. The URL for the edit link is http://chooseyourstory.com/my/adveditor/default.aspx?32768, or higher, isn't it?

Yep. Is there any way to fix this?

Like the previous times this issue cropped up, this is something only alexp can fix, unfortunately.

...Well crap. I guess I'll message him so I can actually create things...

Thanks for your help, though!

  In all the time I've been on this site, I've never seen him post anything besides "News and Updates."

I would recommend trying to open your story in another browser, different from the one you are currently using (IE, Firefox, Chrome, etc) to see if it has a problem there as well.

Unfortunately, it is still a problem there. Arrggh... this is getting pretty frustrating.

Omg I just came here because I had the same problem with my story game. It said the same thing. I had no trouble making my other ones. And note that I had planned to make a really big one that text appears aswell.

Yep, it's happening to me, too.  I can create a game, I just can't edit it.  I've tried in several browsers, too, soooo...

Looks like this problem is spreading. This could become really bad. Hopefully alexp responds...

Yeah. This is going to affect all new storygames until the problem is rectified.

Just tested it, same thing happened to me.

Can confirm.

Same here, error pops up when I create a new storygame and try to edit it.

I have the same problem with me. Just logged on for the first time and BOOM! Error.

Okay everyone, it's pretty easy to see now that this problem is affecting everybody on CYS. Which isn't good.

Had anyone else alerted alexp? I think he may take notice to it if 10 other people are having the same problem...

Like I said, he's rarely ever on. The mods would have to reach him via email.

Is there anybody else who could fix the problem?

(Sorry, idk. I'm not what you'd call a veteran of this site.)

No, probably not.

(They'd probably just be called veterans)

I'll try logging in later to see if the problem has been fixed. 
Gosh-dangit! I had a good idea for a story, too.

If it' an issue, use the contact us button on the bottom.  Thats how I tend to contact alexp whenever a really big issue shows up.

Has anybody done this as of yet?

I messaged him, but as the others were saying, he isn't on too much.

Not talking about pming, talking about emailing. Press the contact us button on the bottom right.
