We're extending our Open Server Weekend!

[GravityDerp]

Okay so I downloaded the game and my dad and I are confused that the game itself won't load.... And this seems really complicated with the 7zip stuff and neither of us can figure it out. Also we downloaded the game and kind find the file anywhere even though we saved it to downloads.
Help please!

I just started the other night, so it's kinda short for me 

[Turret Pony]

Whenever I try to connect to any server, it tries to load for a bit, and then gives me the following message:
"Failed to connect.  Failed to establish connection - no response from remote host"

Is anyone else able to login but is unable to connect to the server?  This has been happening to me for the past half-hour..

[FanofRainbowDash]

No 508s... just says couldn't login. What message does it display when the servers are closed?

[Turret Pony]

It gives me the really long message/string of code, whatever it is.
That's only happened to me once before, though, the rest of the time I get the connection error.

[Starfly]

This sums up my response.

Spoiler: show

"Ha ha! The fun has been doubled!"

Also, Piaffe seems to be lagging heavily for me, the animations and the stamina bar is delayed for about 30 seconds. Not sure if that's just the amount of people playing.

Still doesn't help at all.... Also it won't download in Firefox because that question mark isn't there!!! So I used Internet explorer and once it got done downloading it jut didn't save it to my files and I don't know what happened. And we don't know how to "extract" files.

[FanofRainbowDash]

I can't get in the game! Will a few generous souls logout for a few measley minutes??? Or is the server closed???   

[Bell]

Great, I know but I'd really hope it will last forever   

[GravityDerp]

I extracted the file and now I'm confused.
What does play the game by administrator mean?! What do I have to do?

Right click the LoE exe file and select "Run Program as administrator"

Thank you!!! I made my pony now it's loading.... Forever

[Turret Pony]

Is LoE even working for anyone right now?  It still won't connect to any server for me.

[Ründo]

and suddenly it's easier to login... probably because more than half are unaware that you extended the duration of this event....

[WellCookedFaces]

For some reason, when I downloaded it, it just became a link to an internet page (it looks like a piece of paper with the internet explorer icon on it, i'm not sure what thats called) and it just sends me to the downloads page when I try to open it. Anyone know whats wrong? I really want to play but I don't really know what I'm doing 
If anyone knows how to fix or explain, please do  (Oh, I'm using a windows seven computer, if that helps)

[BlueThunder97]

if only i knew about this 2-3 days ago, i would start making friends! all i have time to do is run around looking for secrets and help other ponies.

[Turret Pony]

Am I really the only one who is getting the server error?
("Failed to connect.  Failed to establish connection - no response from remote host")

LoE, I'm getting tired of this...

It does that randomly. I too get it, sometimes. You just gotta keep trying. Remember that the game is still in Alpha, so there is a lot that still needs fixing, building and polishing!

[Butterfly Kisses]

I've been seeing some responses to those who have been trying to get on. They get told to just keep trying. Keep trying?! There are those like myself who have been TRYING for four days and still can't get in. I have at one point been trying to login for four hours straight and nothing. I have read that someone from your team got fired for trying to suggest more servers and that someone complained about how it would cost more money, well that should have been thought of before creating the game in the first place don't you think?
