I have been trying to load RISK. Can't get past connecting to server.

I've been having the same trouble. It's been five days now for me. Once it would take me to the last screen and then the grey bar wouldn't count down to play. It would just remain blank. I've had all sorts of problems ... the game freezing in mid play and not allowing me to make a turn or finish one, only letting the bots play on. Also, the camera would zoom in and out repeatedly., making it next to impossible to play.. I've been a member of Pogo since 2005 and I haven't had much to say about anything in that time, but this is just plain ridiculous.
