I can't get the webcam thing to work! All of my browsers work with my webcam, yet the test is saying nope. Ridiculous.

Mine just loaded. Started at 11:00am CST, in at 11:19am EST, but I don't have a webcam and am stuck at the "Proceed without verification" button

Anyone's still loading? I'm suppressing my urge to hit the sign in button 3 billion times

I emailed CASPer, got this:

Hi there,

Please note that we are currently experiencing a longer than usual time to login and to start the test. The test time has been extended so that you may start the test between 12:00PM EST to 1:00PM EST. Rest assure that you will still have a full 90 minutes to complete the test. You will not be penalized for the delay you've experienced.

Please also note that you do not need to continually refresh the page. In the event that you are unable to start the test, please wait for 2-3 minutes, sign out and sign back in. If this still does not work, please wait another 2-3 minutes, sign out and sign back in. After the second attempt and this still does not work, please contact us at this point. Otherwise, please wait and try re-login after 2-3 minutes.

We will continually update you to let you know our progress. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Altus Assessment Team.

I signed out because of this email and now I can't sign back in...
 
Mine still says "Loading" after logging in. I hope they don't extend it to 2 hours, then 3. Don't want to stay here forever
 
Ok guys! It is working for me now. Using Chrome. Good luck!
 
Guys, try not refreshing. I just waited and I got in, but now I'm stuck because my webcam takes a picture, I click "use photo", and nothing happens.
 
might be browser? chrome doesn't work for me on test question. So i am using firefox instead.

Email said to use Chrome, I can't even login on Firefox because I think the servers are overloaded with people all trying to log in since they logged a bunch of people out.

Can anyone confirm if they can get past the Video Check page and it's just me!? D: I got past the webcam, it took a few minutes for them to process my photo.
 
So my webcam is totally fine, but its not working with their test interface. It literally shows a black screen, but I just got done using my webcam in skype to test if it was working properly.

GG Casper?

Just keep waiting, it took like a minute for it to move to the next page and "verify."
 
first question- we are gonna be here forever guys- it is sooo goddamn slow
 
Still can't even get past the "Sign in" button... gah
 
Did you get past video check???? 🙁 Nothing showed up for me. I got past the girl in the instructional video, but video check isn't showing anything.

Is the instruction video before the photo check? because I never had an instruction video...
 
Mine just says "Cannot Start Test Again" and "loading". I never started it in the first place!
 
ive been stuck on the video check thing for 5 minutes, was running smoothly before this...
