OS version?
I'm running Lion and don't have a problem. What version of Mac OS X are you running, if you're having the crash?

Same here (10.6.7).
Edited to add:
playing from installed client, not Steam.
no error message, just froze up solid and required a Force Quit. (was not playing in full-screen mode.)

Fix?
Every game at least 1 freeze requiring force quits. Sometimes sound cuts out right before the game crashes.... every, single, time.

the same problem for me since
the same problem for me since last night. I thought something wrong has happened to my mac. My version is 10.6.8, based on what i read.. is it a snow leopard thing? Plz fix it because its so irritating when you are in the middle of a match and suddenly the game crashes/freezes.. not just once but twice in the same match.

We have two Macs, one running
We have two Macs, one running 10.6 and the other 10.5. Each is up to date with java. We don't use Steam. As others have said, the sound cuts out first, then the client locks up. If we don't run it fullscreen, then we can force quit and start again. If it is fullscreen, then we have to restart the computer. Only the PvP causes this, nothing else in the game.

well i guess since they just implemented the pvp yesterday, it is expected to encounter problems like these. I do hope though that the GMs will act soon so we can have more fun in the coliseum than be spiteful of the sudden crashes/freezes...
Kudos!

Seems to fix it
The inability to speak the language coherently really helps us to care about your 1k crowns.
I downloaded and installed OSX Lion, so I'm now running 10.7 and the freezing seems to have stopped.

It is not LAG -- There is a
It is not LAG -- There is a problem (and always was) with Snow Leopard handling JAVA application.
When I was on Snow Leopard, the King Krogmo Coliseum Event would FREEZE. No error messages, with the sound cutting out throughout the whole computer (I was watching a video while doing one event and the video lost sound too). This is not the only time a Java application has experienced difficulties running on Snow Leopard.
When I checked out what Minecraft was all about, the game (also Java based) was barely playable. I had to allocate all my ram to it, which is quite unnecessary.
When I upgraded to Lion, all those symptoms disappeared. Furthermore, these hiccups aren't seen on Leopard either, as I played a bit on an older computer.
What now?
It is unlikely that the devs will fix this problem as it is only restricted to Mac users and on top of that Snow Leopard users. I'm pretty sure the devs are programming on Windows and would have little to no knowledge of how Java works on Macs. Why? Because Apple distributes it's own Java updates, OUTSIDE of Sun.
There is no known solution as of yet.

Not true. As I mentioned, I have this problem with a machine running 10.5 (Leopard). If it was restricted to Leopard, as the Auction House bug was, I could upgrade the desktop to Snow Leopard, since I already have it installed on my laptop. But I'm not about to be forced to upgrade to Lion on both machines because of Spiral Knights PvP. The Auction House bug was fixed, so I'm hoping this is fixable as well.

working on it
I'm a dev, I develop on a Mac, but I'm running 10.7.
We're working on it, we've got some macs on 10.6, but haven't tracked it down yet.

Thanks for the update,
as a snow leopard it's quite aggravating... Please let us know when you fix it so I can start playing...
Edit: Just wanted to add one more thing...
I thought the issue was fixed with the rest of the bugs because I had played three games and it didn't freeze up, but it froze up after the third game ended... Please fix!!! I was having so much fun...

some more info: Didn't crash
some more info:
Didn't crash for me when playing 2 v 2, only in games where there are 8 players.
Seems like if there are a large number of detonations going off at once, it triggers the client to freeze or crash.
Edit: has frozen playing 2v2 and 3v3 also.

@wtfwtf_ok
How is finding the bug progressing?
After the patch on August 3rd, it's been freezing less often (maybe once every two-three games) but still freezing.

The new patch has made this
The new patch has made this worse. Before at least I could force quit and when I restarted spiral knights it would load right back into the coliseum match. Even if the match had ended before I reloaded, I would still get the coins. But now, when I force quit and restart it just loads me into haven. This really stinks.
edit: I found this thread through search so I didn't see the other thread where this has been talked about already

Hellooooo !!!
Me too, I'm on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and my Spiral Knights (i'm on Steam) freezing...

Same with me.
I have the same problem sadly, I go with Snow leopard 10.6.8 I am not steam.. and that video above shows what is happening to me as well as all of is it seems. Please help us here, as I love PvP. Had around 20 games without freezing and thought it was fixed, then I freezed.
Been freezing a lot since that, so please, if you can, try and fix this.

Loadout Pin
Loadout Button is COMPLETELY broken for me. I can't click on it or the game freezes and I have to force my computer to shut down manually (restart doesn't even work because the SK window is so completely frozen it cancels the shutdown).
i know how you feel dude
