And different pices moving that i know didnt click?

It's with cathym. Not sure if she was on or noticed anything, its game http://www.pocket-monkey.com/game.jsp?instance=1310831
I had bumped her and locked her out, know had not movied a piece off my 6point by the bar as was moving pieces around the board to home.
At first even thought we had identical games, but right now just have one game with her, very odd. Wondered if anyone else noticed any unusual things on their games? Or had i moved and didnt realize?

Hi,
its game http://www.pocket-monkey.com/game.jsp?instance=1310831
Note that since that's not a tourney game, only you, I, and cathm can see it. :-)

I'm not seeing anything unusual in the game other than that you had a six prime in your home table and broke it without needing to on turn #53.
And different pices moving that i know didnt click?
There have been (very) occasional reports of people using the DHTML games (as you seem to be) saying that pieces seemed to have moved on their own. (Although I've never been able to substantiate that, but I haven't spent a lot of time trying because I'm replacing them.) The final move is always shown for you to confirm by clicking Send, though, so you can correct it if it's not right (via Undo or just by moving to a different game and then coming back to it in the rotation).

Hope this helps,

I do not know TJ just was very strange, didnt appear to have moved the wrong piece until i had hit send, at that point it was odd then same thing happened again, think even asked Cathy if we had 2 games going that were at same point..oh well...

By replacing do you mean changing so the only option will be with java? Have enjoyed being able to play on ipad, thats a bummer.

No, absolutely not. Replacing them with ones re-written from the ground up for modern web browsers (without using Java or Flash). You'll be fine with the iPad.
