http://www.arcadeboss.com/game-2506-3-Jewel-Lines.html
I've tried dozens of times, different techniques, different browsers, including sometimes completing all 18(?) levels, but still NO WAY will it ever submit my score to AB. (It once DID add score to Mochi, but then still not to AB too.)
I see dozens here HAVE submitted scores - can I be the ONLY one who has any trouble ????? |

Try choosing 'ARCADE' mode instead of 'NEW' game Eagleand at the end of your game it should submit a score for you.
I had the same problem the first time i played it

Thanks for that Nee ... but ....
I click ARCADE, then SKIP to bypass the demo, then play, deliberately dying at 770 - and it goes straight to the circle of balls, saying "Please Wait".
At this point I can change the language, or "add to my blog or site", but nothing more actually happens ..... till after 5 minutes or so I give up 'waiting. 
Any further ideas, anyone ?
{{LATER}} Forget it !
Seems to me that it's "fixed itself" in the last hour or so - until then I'd tried and tried with never any success, but since then I find suddenly it's working perfectly for me every time, and I can't even figure any way to make it NOT work. |

I THINK I've found the complete answer - surprising as it may seem.
Still subject to much testing over a number of days, but I think it's basically just internet connection speed!
"Normally" my (download) speed is around 3 or 4 Mbps, but during prime time (aprox 7pm-11pm here) it can slow down to less than 1 Mbps.
When it's 'fast' the game submits scores perfectly, both in NEW (Easy OR normal) and in ARCADE - automatically submitting as soon as you run out offree spaces.
But when internet is 'slow' it (A) doesn't show the little grey Mochi oval at top left while playing, and (B) at game end it sits and "Please Wait"s endlessly - I've left it for 5 or 10 minutes - it's true!
So - those on broadband of probably anything over 2 Mbps should have no trouble, but anyone under that level may well have intermittent problems (and I'd like to hear from anyone in that range!).
NOTE: During these "slow" times I really never notice any significant difference for normal surfing, flash game playing, audio streaming, etc - though I must admit actually downloading games at the start can be a pain - THAT's usually when I'm aware all is not as smooth as usual.
