Is there a problem? The stupid advertisement gets stuck at like different seconds, seconds away from being able to click on the button, and wont let me click on "play game". Any one else? And I do keep refreshing. Thank you!

Same thing happened to me. It's the ERA Oxibooster Cleaner Detergent commercial.

I think I experienced that ever since I started playing Elements. Some ads load slower, and some don't load at all. Refresh, done.

The game's not gonna be perfect. It's a little buggy every now and then; just reload and you'll be fine.

Well here's an odd one for you...

I keep freezing in the last 2-3 seconds of these stupid Cadillac ads. I've refreshed dozens of times now and to my horror it always freezes in the same place.

My internet speed and computer have nothing to do with this because they're great, and I've never had a problem once.

The bug isn't with the game, it is the advertisement itself.  The advertisement is redirected to that screen, and sometimes it doesn't load because the redirection of the link isn't good.

That's pretty much what I theorized, but it still didn't help to know that.
I had to wait for a different cycle of ads to pop through to play the game.

See this has happened to me with every ad I've gotten for about the past week or so. I've had to refresh a few dozen times to get the game to load recently. Eventually I just got pissed and turned on my ad blocker. Sorry Zanz.

Since this happens with so many advertisements though, I don't think it's the fault of any one ad. More likely to be something related to the site? Or idk, I'm just talking out of my ass and don't now anything about technology.

FWIW according to most of the standard terms I've seen for such things, you would get zanz his ad revenue by letting one ad run normally, then turning on your adblocker, then refreshing and actually getting to play the game.

It's an inelegant solution, but it's better than broken ads preventing you from ever playing the game.
