This is the third time I have experienced this.
My opponent takes a very long time to play. Suddenly the game is ended with the message,"game abandoned." I was the last one to move; but I am docked 8 points.
I think I have figured it out. The person playing knows exactly how many sections to wait and makes a move in the last second. Their move is recorded at the same instance that the game is declared abandoned. Anyone else experience this? Any solutions?
There is no cheat. You got disconnected from the Live server, and your opponent can't impact your connection.
