I have been playing Scrabble on Facebook for a while but suddenly it just blinks and doesn't open. It does open if I switch to Google Chrome.

it is apparent to me that firefox has no intention on fixing this issue. I love firefox and have had it for many yrs but now with all the changes updates and such i may be leaving Firefox, Please fix the scrabble issue. hasbro and EA games say they are working on it. what is firefox doing about it

Hi Mary, your screenshot showed that the script on the server was having a problem -- it didn't have access to user and country. Probably that information comes from your Facebook account. Is Firefox 68.0.2 failing to share FB account information with the EA server?? I think we need EA to tell Mozilla how the requests/responses received from Firefox are different from other browsers to track down where the issue is. Maybe they're discussing it somewhere less public.

i was just on Chrome playing scrabble and i got the below image for you, i do not even get that far on Firefox to get the compatibly check. So to me that means it is a Firefox problem

Hi Mary, in order to use the console information, I think someone needs detailed knowledge of the game scripts. This is all I could say:

I don't know what these are from:

Monitoring 
Array [ null ]
content.js:139:17
Monitoring 
Array [ null ]
content.js:139:17

The following looks like an issue in the Scrabble game script, but I don't know whether it's serious (not that the error occurs on line one of the script at character 561,440 which will make this hard for people other than the game developers to understand): TypeError: e is null scrabble_full.min.js:1:561440 The following is how FB apps can access your account information, but it's not clear why loading failed: Loading failed for the <script> with source “blob:https://staticxx.facebook.com/c0e86408-b999-4d70-8184-e2fea54a815b”. xd_arbiter.php:1:1

That seems to be causing the next problem, Scrabble can't get your user FB information:

Network error for GetUserIndirect => retrying scrabble_full.min.js:1:35646
[RIVER] initialization is failed scrabble_full.min.js:1:556153
PLAY_SFX OK 2 scrabble_full.min.js:1:586714
Loading failed for the <script> with source “https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/v3iNZm4/yN/l/en_US/N_vOxQ4fnuU.js?_nc_x=f33IAWRwFiq”. ea_scrabble_closed:1:1

The stuff after that doesn't look important.

seems evident to me that Firefox is not going to fix this issue with scrabble, Sad because i so like Firefox but hey maybe i should go to Chrome. Not that Firefox cares if they lose a loyal customer that has been on Firefox for yrs.

I don't think anyone has filed a bug report for Scrabble yet. We've tried to diagnose the problem here in support but so far we haven't come up with an explanation for why it doesn't work for you.

You can file a bug report here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi
