Blitz - No opponents showing

I know blitz is working because somebody else that I know can get on, yet all I have is a scfreen with the "home" tab shoing, can't see any games or opponenets. ANy ideas?

If you're using IE8, see Russ's thread in the Announcements forum.

I experienced a couple of 'oddities' there, this early AM...one being similar to that that you describe here. A blank screen with 'home' being visible but the 'game' tab was not, nor was there any opportunity to create a game from the bottom drop box that should have been there. However, I merely closed both Chrome browser tabs ( the main site, and the Blitz tabs )... immediately upon logging back on to the site, the full Blitz menu was available.
I also experienced the board interchanging between the two games I'd been viewing in the last 20 minutes or so ( 'spectating' in each, separately )...one minute I was viewing the game I'd requested to see, and the next I was inadvertently watching the game that I'd left some 20 minutes previously.
Both minor glitches I'd imagine, but I am reminded of the fact that the Blitz micro site is very new, and most certainly it is a vast improvement over the last offering !!
I do think it would be wise to keep all of the issues with the Blitz site, together in just one thread...as Kewpie notes also, but no matter which browser we use.
