Can more than two people join the same server?

Can more than two people join the same server?
im not sure if this is possible to change for it, but it seems as though the button to pull down the file menu is very close to the spacebar and sometimes it pulls it down and screws up my time so i have to manually stop it with the mouse. any way to move the command for the timer that drops down the file menu?
You are talking about the Alt-button issue right? Well a few people have complained about this, but it's a pretty general issue that occurs with many timer programs, and I'm not sure how I'd fix it...
Who have tried the server function with other people? What do you think? I use it quite often vs. Kristoffer, and I like it a lot better than other competition features (like the competitions on cubemania or the SC). I'd love it if more people could join the same server. Are you still working on the timer? When can I expect new updates?
Doug, I just wanted to say I tried the new version today for the first time, and it was WONDERFUL! I've always been frustrated with the handling of BLD, since it didn't track DNFs properly. Now it all works correctly and great, and basically functions the way I always wanted it to. I can keep track of my percentage, and if I get going on an actual valid 12-solve average, it will calculate it correctly. And having the display right on the main page of the scramble is nice too.
You may not have added much, but you definitely added all the things I needed most. Thank you - this is much appreciated.
JNet can have easy scrambles and difficult scrambles. They are all randomly generated. You should use all of them (especially the difficult ones) to get an accurate idea of your skill level.
2. Key-Down stopping is a silly problem that I was close to closing, but kept getting bogged down with actual bugs.
3. Multi-slice scrambles for 4x4 and 5x5. Very tricky and I never got answers to my questions on it.
It would be really nice if there was a way to record splits in rubiksjtimer, for when doing 2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4, 5x5x5 etc. at once. Perhaps a 'marathon' puzzle mode where spacebar sets a split and another key stops the timer, or you pre-determine the number of splits, and the keypress after the last split stops the timer. It would save buying a webcam and going through the footage...
I've been writing a java cube timer for MIDP (phones and can't work out/bother to work out a decent average calculation algorithm. It's not trivial as you have to cope with DNF, +2, 3 from 5, etc. If someone learned fancied linking me some source I can 'borrow' then it would make someone PMing me feature requests happy.
