Hey there I can't seem to get the Scavenator to work?
I've tried in both IE7 and the latest version of Firefox but everytime I click the "Start Hunting" button nothing happens, the page reloads with no change. I've played scavenator before with no problems so i'm a little confused. Is this scavenator only open to US residents or is that just the sweepstakes?

Cheers,
Josh.

Scavenator is open to everyone. I believe it's the browser causing issues. I completed the hunt last night with no problems. But it could be any add-ons in firefox. But I'm not sure about the IE since I don't use the browser.

I've not got no add-ons installed for Mozilla Firefox. I have everything on by default like JavaScript. I am using the UK site. I don't know if it has something to do with that.

I am also having the same problem and again, I am from the UK too. I have tried using the US domain but it always loads in the UK page and then I just go round in circles.

I hope this problem gets resolved soon. I don't want to miss out. I had problems on the previous games too.

Okay chaps since we're all having trouble and we're all UK residents i'm pretty sure either the appearing of scanvenator to us is a bug (like dab said it doesn't appear to the aussies and maybe it shouldn't appear to us as it might be US only thing alot of gamespots stuff) or it won't allow us to play even if we can see it for the same reason.
