I just started a new game, a player joined, and then cancelled... game over.

It's annoying to have to start a new game when this happens.

It happens occasionally. Hope you also have some satisfying encounters with some of the really nice people on this site.

It's gotta be better than sitting , waiting for your non-existent opponent to move. Now that would be REALLY annoying! Laughing

I've done this when I accepted a match and then I was sitting there forever and the opponent suddenly logs off (no blinking antenna) without having made a single move.

I usually try to play with someone right away. That's why I only accept games with people that are online.
