Thanks for the info.

It did work for me precisely 3 times, which you might see in my account from me being paid by them 3 times just after midnight last night.
Then I got this:



I did send a mail to their support pointing out that my IP is as clean as it gets, but got no reply so far and right now I'm still getting the same error.

Wellwell, MoreTV is gone.
After it has been down almost all day, it came back with a false detection of VPN, kicking out literally ALL their users in a matter of 10 minutes with a message that they are using a VPN, where especially my IP is one of the cleanest you can find on the web.
With this one out of the options, the 15 daily quests have become unreachable, unless someone wants to waste over 4 hours on doing 100 level 1 missions which is pretty counter productive being on level 19.

Well, I have nothing better to do today, so let me give you my 5 cents (again).

Of course I don't know the code behind it, but from a users point of view there are quite a few flaws in the site that have existed for a long time, where instead of fixing them you keep adding new ones.

- The "ooops something went wrong" or "error, too many redirects" has existed for many months, it has been pointed out in here many times by many different users, you have several times asked a user for details about when it occurs, I've written a fairly detailed explanation at least twice (many pages ago) and yet, no fix in sight, just the opposite, getting worse, when clicking a shortlink the error can happen up to 3 times in a row before one gets to the shortlink.
The fix is as easy as it gets, you simply cannot have a popup or popunder in between a button click and a shortlink, because the tour from the site via a popup into a shortlink is literally what the error says: "too many redirects".

- The lag, when the whole page gets stuck due to an ad not loading isn't new at all, occurs about every single time there's elevated traffic on the web and has been like that for many months.
The solution is again fairly easy, either set a short timeout of maybe half a second for loading external content, or move the loading of ads to the end of the page, so the page loads first and buttons can be clicked even if an ad doesn't load.

- The fact that all shortlinks lead to the mining page rather than the page they came from is not just an inconvenience for users, it's also a huge additional load for the server, because all users every single time they access a shortlink from missions or daily bonus have to load an extra page for nothing.

- The waiting timer when opening chests one finds in missions is entirely nonsense, there is no point whatsoever in delaying the opening of a chest by 2 - 24 hours.
Same thing with missions, why would there be any kind of point in making the user wait for the end of a mission, while a mission can be started only when a user has the required energy for that.

- The prices you have for stuff to buy ........ well, I don't want to make nasty comments on that, let me put it in a question: I have over 12,000 crystals to sell and 10HP on top I can give as well, would you give me the 120,000 sat it costs to buy them?
I'm kinda looking forward to the opening of the user exchange and I hope you do not have fixed preset prices in there, can't wait to see the price of crystals drop to 0.01 sat or something like that.
Literally ALL users past level 15 have a ton of crystals in stock and no clue what to do with them.

- You are aware that your site is not the only site using shortlinks, aren't you?
You are aware that shortlinks pay only so many accesses per IP, meaning if a user has used the same shortlinks on some other faucet before accessing it at CMG you don't get paid.
Or in other words: Shortlinks are basically useless, because with 100s of faucets out there all accessing the very same shortlinks chances for you to get paid are very small, it's only a huge inconvenience for the users for no reason.
This is the reason why almost all faucets based on shortlinks go belly up within a few days or weeks after they open, simply because they get paid only a tiny fraction of what they expect while ignoring the fact that 100s of faucets cannot all get paid by the same shortlinks.

I'm aware of several dozen different ways to block ads, but I'm not so sure about actually using them.
After all this is a faucet that pays its user from its revenue and there is no revenue from users blocking ads, meaning the more users block ads, the less the faucet can pay to all of us.

I'm aware that CMG compared to other faucets has way more ads, especially way more popups and popunders and I've heard from other users arguments like they are blocking ads only if they find the amount exaggerated.
I would even agree that the amount of popups CMG has seems really exaggerated.
But then, what do you think will come out of users blocking ads, other than CMG implementing even more ads for those who do not block them plus reducing the payout even further than they did already?

Keep in mind, most faucets that have less ads either pay less than CMG does or stop paying and disappear after a while.

Errrmmmmm ..... you get to the mining page every 10 minutes, because that's where "refill energy" takes you and then, no matter where you click, you get this redirect through which you lose the CMG page.
I already ment to suggest, when you want to launch a mission and have to do a shortlink first, why would that shortlink take you to the mining page? Can't it take you back to missions?
Same thing when I'm on the missions page and refill energy from there, can't it take me back to missions?

You forgot to mention what one has to do to take a mining boost.
When mining is in progress, the white bar reading "Mining Boost" is disabled, so does it work only before starting the mining?

And then there is a new bug in the ads.
1 in 3 times I click anywhere the page gets redirected to an ad.
I assume it's supposed to be a popup or popunder, but doesn't work like that, it redirects the CMG tab to this ad and that's it.
I have to close the ad, reopen a new browser window and reopen the CMG page, where there's then a good chance that upon first click it again redirects to that ad.
I've had a similar case on some other faucet some months ago, where after I had done this reopen of their page some 15 or 20 times, they banned me for the reason that "so many page refreshes only a bot would do".

Nope, still the same.

If it helps you any, at least one part of the things pages are waiting for near endlessly is xghfi97mk6.com

Edit: ..... and the other is edua29146y.com

Once these two are loaded or timed out, the rest of the pages is fast.

It's not the buttons not working, it's the pages not fully loading.
Something (not sure what, most likely an ad) in the long list of things the pages have to load must be down or extremely lagging and the whole site gets stuck waiting for that thing to load.
Once the waiting for that thing timed out or that thing finally loading the rest of the page loads fast and then the buttons work fine, but it can take up to 5 minutes before the timeout finally allows the rest of the page to load, which is obviously extremely annoying when refilling energy plus starting a mission including another shortlink means 6 or 7 page loads, each taking up to 5 minutes.

If the content of the pages were loading in a different order, especially with "ads last" I assume the site would be way faster and an ad not loading would then be the problem of the advertiser instead of us users.
I guess the pages load ads first to make sure they pay for a view, but then, an ad timing out won't pay no matter how long a page waits for it to load.

Not sure what it's worth for and whether or not you will ignore it, but let me give you my 5 cents.

I'm member in several forums, chats attached to other faucets, etc. and I obviously have my own opinion as well.
I know several dozen users of CMG, but I don't know anyone who is looking forward to the game you're developping, virtually everyone I know is hoping for an option to simply sell the cards and Crypto Coinz they have.
For some reason most users can't even calculate, meaning they expect an actual value in the cards, like 10s or 100s of sat per card, because you're selling them for such a high price, like a few 100 cards and some crystals for 62,000 sat like you offer in your boost section, suggesting a card may be worth about 50 sat.
I believe there will be a huge disappointment among users, when they figure out, cards, crystals and Crypoto Coinz are worth way less than 1 sat a piece.

Of course I have no crystal ball and I personally am aware of this stuff being worth next to nothing, but not all users do the math, so if I were you, I'd get ready for a gigantic sh*tstorm as soon as you open your new exchange and an even greater one in case that exchange doesn't have an option to sell cards.

The game itself, well, let's say almost nobody expected anything from it the first time and that was already a huge failure, so what do you think users expect from the smaller version you have announced?

Side note: The timer counting to the reset of the daily quests is off by an hour, quests reset an hour before the timer expires.

...... and then, there is THIS bug:



Edit: Thanks for fixing this one.

It's actually far worse than that, not sure if I can explain it, but I'll try.

Basically there are two types of ads, popup and popunder, where popup simply opens a new browser tab with the ad, while popunder redirects the CMG page to an ad page, where the ad page then opens a new browser tab that reopens the CMG page.
Recently more and more sites have discovered that popunder is more effective, because users cannot block these for the simple reason that a blocked page cannot reopen the site the popunder came from.
Unfortunately in quite a few of the former popups that have now become popunders the reopening of the CMG page doesn't work, meaning it opens the ad page and from there the user gets stuck, because the CMG site is gone.
Users have to manually close the ad page, reopen the browser, reopen CMG and click again what they ment to do before, after which it starts over, because CMG sees a new log in and reopens the very same popunder again.
Can happen up to 10 times in a row, before the CMG doesn't open that popunder anymore.

Same thing happens in linkshrink, but there one can solve it.
If you do a shortlink with linkshrink and you wait out the 5 seconds timer without doing anything, linkshrink doesn't return to CMG, but redirects to a popunder with the same malfuntion that doesn't reopen CMG.
But if you click into the 5 seconds timer while it counts down, the ad comes up as a popup instead of a popunder and after the countdown is due the return to CMG works.

Without wanting to get into this discussion about HP, let me say, I'm not sure how much longer my patience with this site will last.
Things are getting worse by the day.

Current example:
After we've had months of "internal server error" due to badly implemented ddos check, the solution seemed to have been, not fixing the implementation, but terminating the ddos check.
From there on the site got slower and slower, supposedly due to ddos attacks.
The solution to that now seems to be, reimplementing ddos check, but still not in a fixed way, but worse than before.
Now it goes like this:

The energy timer expires, I click "refill 1 energy", the popup appears, I choose my shortlink, but instead of the shortlink the ddos check appears.
After successful ddos check I get a Google warning, saying "cryptomininggame doesn't work" with a button to "reload".
After reload I get the well known old error from the CMG site, saying "an internal server error occured" together with the also long known "let us know, we will fix it asap".
After another reload I can start over, click the "refill 1 energy" and this time it works.
All this filled up with an enormous overload of popups, that become especially annoying if after the popup, instead of what you ment to do, you get an error that has been known and not fixed for about half a year now.

For some days now, every other time I click anywhere on the site, it opens a new window with no content.
Not even a new tab, no, a new window, titled about:blank
Could you find out where that comes from?
I'm tired of closing that 100 times a day and it doesn't serve any purpose for the site either.

It's not "your" performance index, it's the performance index of BTC which increases or decreases with BTC value.
BTC has gained towards US$ last week, therefore the performance index of BTC goes down.

Any news about the announced market place?
I'm drowning in crystals.

Yes I noticed, suddenly got better, was about time.

... has been for a few days now almost permanently.

I figured something out, so let me do a ........ not bug but ........ let's say cause of problem report.

When a page loads on CMG the website itself is quite fast and a few weeks ago you have changed something that loads the basic page before anything else, so that part is almost always fast now, but ever since that, there's a lag in between the basic page loading and the timers loading.
I figured out, that's not because of slow loading timers, but because of slowloading ads, because the timers do not load before all ads are loaded.
This means, whenever an ad is down or loading slow, the CMG page can hang for up to 5 minutes per click in between the basic page and the timers, meaning you see the page, but instead of the timers you see that rotating wheel indicating "please wait".

I'm not sure how much revenue for CMG relates to this forced waiting of loading the ads, but if this report helps you any, maybe you can do something about it and speed it up.

Isn't that something absolutely ALL faucets have in common?
I mean there are countless ideas of things faucets offer aside of their plain faucet, whether it's a stupid hi-lo game or a poker game or whatever else, they ALL pay less than it costs to play them.
That's why users give these side activities a try, they figure out it's a secure loss and don't use them anymore.

Personally I can't wait to see the "user exchange" launching that has been announced for the end of the month (which is tomorrow).
I'm really curious to see how low the price of crystals, cards and treasure chests will drop in there.
My guess for the exchange rate of crystals to sat will be 1 crystal < 1 sat and for treasure chests you can be happy if you don't have to pay for getting rid of them.

Hasn't launched yet, it's announced to launch "early this year", but without precise date.
