New Games Goes Away

by **jojala** on Wed Apr 06, 2011 12:11 pm

Hi,

I've tried a couple of time to start a new game (speed game). After I create it it does then go to "Awaiting Players", but then after a few minutes it then simply goes away.

Thanks in advace for any tips,

jojala

i've never played speed games, but I imagine that it goes away after awhile so that it in case it takes a long time to get players, it won't start if you have already logged off. it's so you don't miss your turns. If i'm wrong, it's probably a bug

If your account is inactive for 15 minutes, it gets dropped...

DOn't know if this is your problem though.

This isn't really a GD topic. It may really belong in q&a, but just to be on the safe side, I'm moving it to bugs.

Speed games have expiration time. If no one has joined it or you are not active on the site it is auto-dropped to prevent point loss.

I am moving this to Q&A if you want to know the exact minutes.
