Occasionally,on logging onto the MI server you can be presented with the 'empty room' syndrome.That is to say,the foyer list is empty,with not even your own name there.The existing online players can see you but they are invisible too you as is their text too.
The solution is this...Host a game and type asking someone to join,that you see an empty room,and that this will solve the problem.
The players who know of this remedy will almost certainly oblige and join your game.
Start the game,take just one unit and rout on begining the game.When you are returned to main foyer screen all is as it should be,back to normal.
I realise that many are now familiar with this fix but hope that those that arent may read this...Its so frustrating seeing people logging on and off unable to join the online game and being totally unable to assist them.

Hi there ShinGaiJin. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif Thanks for joining, but mostly thanks for sharing that MI server fix.It is also nice to see such cooperation amongst the MI players to help out the invisible man in the foyer. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif

Good to be here Gregoshi,although I had previous membership both as ShinGaiJin..lost the password duhh and under a former clan name too,but I intend to post here more frequently than I have.
The log on problem is very common and my main concern is that anyone totally new to the online game may give up before they actually get to play should they encounter this bug.
We need to keep MI alive folks
