Are any of you's M.O.Ms experiencing weirdness with the game? I was playing earlier today and it seemed to be working more or less well. Now the second I enter a mission I instantly get "Connection Lost". Nothing's wrong with my wifi and I've tried it via 4G, same problem. Android phone, iPad, both equally jacked. It went goofy about two hours ago. Anyone?

Yep, I've checked city codes as well nothing, we shall just have to wait. Is our Paul really the son of Paul Mantz, hollywoods most prolific flyer, who was killed while making the original Flight of the Phoenix, starring James Stewart ?

Guys during my search for Paul I have found a number of server stations are flooded or damaged, so that would be why you're having problems.

With her first attempt I think, seems he was quite the flyboy during the war years and after before an Honourable Discharge.

Yes, it's true, Paul's dad was the most influential and renowned stunt pilot in Hollywood, Paul Mantz. I have books about the guy. Paul Sr. was a prime mover in aviation, a racing pilot, speed and stunt record holder. He got tapped to perform a touchy movie stunt in around 1931, from that point on he was the movie industry's go-to fly-guy working for people like Howard Hughes. He died filming the final flight scene in Flight of the Phoenix (with James Stewart, 1965) when his partner, Frank Tallman, (another noted aviator) was unable to perform the stunt. Our Paul was born around 1937 or '38 to Paul senior and his second wife, Terry. The rest he can tell us WHEN HE CHECKS IN ON THE THREAD PAUL NOW K?

I refuse to assume the worst. Until I hear differently, I fully expect it's a power outage or connection issue or both.

In my family we couldn't get ahold of a bunch of people for two days. We all started to worry. Land line and cell went straight to voicemail, and no contact through email or text. Finally we called the cops in their town who sent an officer by to check. All were ok. They just had no power, no landline and no cellular network. If anyone knows Paul's address reaching out to the local cops might be an option there too.

From what I've read about RI and New England the storm was not as severe there but the worst storm impact (not surprisingly) was on the coast. Paul probably doesnt have access because he lost power or had to relocate or both.
