Up until a few minutes ago, pressing F8 would open up the chat window normally. But when I did that today, it instantly crashed the game and popped up with the "An error has occured :o" window. I tried pressing both F8 and F9, but every time I did it, the game crashed. Here's the code stuff it told me to post:

I think it's mainly problem with the chat server since when I was playing earlier today the chat window was working at first, but then it suddenly would no longer connect to chat. Then when I tried playing just now I got the same error you got when I tried to open the chat window. I have also noticed that other people are having the same problem based on some of the other bug report posts. However I also think this is a bug within the game since it shouldn't crash just because it can't connect to the chat server.

I cant promise anything but tentatively I should get back to osu! development on the 4th or 5th of jan. This will be the first thing I look at. Until then, feel free to grab an irc client and join @ irc://ppy.sh channel #osu
