Cannot Copy and Paste to join game

[G00seEggs]

I've had two people look at this so far and they originally thought I was BSing them. If I type in the name in the JOIN GAME field, exactly or even copy it from the website and paste it, I will not join the game.

I will only join the game if the name is already in the buffered list, is there a way around this?

This happen to me only when there is full list of game after refreshing list it works well

That being said, how many does the list normally hold?

Mine only queries like 20 games at first and then slowly adds 5 -6 games at a time. I rarely ever get to play teammates because they can all jump straight into the game I have to wait 10-15 refreshes.

Just lookup the number from the website - the rest stays the same anyway:

btanks league qualify #...
btanks league ranked #...

.50

You're missing the point, I already do this. I even have the both on my friends list and I type in the name EXACTLY! <-- I even had two other people control my computer and do the same thing and it won't load.

That's my problem, I can copy and paste from the website and I get the message about game is not available, even if it has open slots.

Make sure you don't copy a space at the end of the game name.. Looks the same, but the blank character prevents from joining game.

Good: "Game Name"
Bad: "Game Name "

It's not difficult...

1. Open your browser and go to btanks.net.

2. Highlight the game name - make sure you don't copy any spaces.

3. Now open W3 and go to the game lobby; Ctrl+V in the game name field and press enter.

4. If it doesn't join I just Esc from the lobby and go back to the Battle.net welcome screen, then click back onto the custom game lobby.

This has to be a dumb ISP block or some type of shit.

I had tested this at another friend's house that doesn't have Charter and it works perfectly, brought along my router as well, so that's not the case.

I know it's not hard, that's why I let 2 people take control of my PC the other day. They all thought I was a retard and then they were both confused as well when it failed for them. We used the Warcraft Teamviewer and no one had an idea why.

Yeah, I can paste, fail, close and open, but it can take up to 15-20 attempts and the room is full by that time when 5 of my friends join instantly.
