Just a heads up I was playing the jeep scavenator and noticed that the emblems you find on the pages wouldnt show up, the reason was that I was on a Mac computer, I switched to a regular Windows Basred computer and everything showed up fine, If Im correct the thousands of people trying to play the new game from a Mac are going to go crazy,,, Hopefully this is corrected quickly as this seems to be sponsored by Jeep, Hopefully this helps! :D

It has been QA'd on macs here in the office with no problems. What browser (including version number) were you trying?

Ah lets see it says: Safari Version 2.0.4 (419.3)., The interesting thing is that the Windows based laptop I switched to is running off of the same internet connection off of the same router so I'm sure it's a Mac Compatibility issue, you know I'm not sure it it's related but I also noticed I cant add links or images on the mac either. Very Strange. Hopefully this helps, if you need anything else please feel free to PM me and I'll help you anyway I can.

I have a feeling this is unique to your mac. i am running OSX 10.4.9 and it works with the latest build of Safari & fireFox.

I am having this same issue as well.  I am running 10.4.9 with the latest version of Safari as well.  I even disabled the pop up blocker before I started.  I started the Scavenator and the first question was the one about the fighter pilots.  I knew the answer and went to the correct game page, but no icon showed up.  I went through every link on that game page as well and nothing.  


In the 'How to play' video, the timer was ticking away as the person was typing, clickiing and dragging. The timer never showed up on my page.  So I quit the contest.  Am I going to be penalized for this as having a horrible time, or can I get a 'do over' as I never got past the first question?

  
Was this verified to work on Safari, or are we going to be forced to use Firefox?

I'm having the same issue. Lastest version of OS X and Safari, but everything seems to be working fine in Firefox for Mac.
