The topic subject is an error message that has shown up over the last three days whenever I try to connect to an internet game. This would be a normal message had I attempted to connect to a LAN game, but I queried Internet Games, and this issue appears for every internet server I try to connect to. The bar on the bottom that usually reads "Welcome McNizzle" only reads "Authentication: Validating Key...". I attempted to re-enter my authentication key; the game accepted the key as genuine but proceeded to give me the validating message. Naturally, this is frustrating to me, because as fun as Blockland is making single-player builds, I enjoy playing on servers. I can view a server list, but can not connect to any games.
So, in synopsis:
1) I receive the same "This is not a LAN Game" error on any internet game I attempt to access.
2) The game appears to be attempting to validate my Game Key, despite having called it valid.
3) I have a valid key, the latest drivers, no firewalls, running Windows XP Professional.
4) The game has worked correctly on Internet games for 3 months prior with no errors; this has been happening for 3 days.
Can anybody give me any insight as to my problem?
