I have the same issue. I read somewhere in another post that uninstalling the app and re-installing helped the other user, but I had no luck doing the same. Mine has been having this issue since this morning and I still cannot make it work. It is July 4th 2012.
If anyone has help it would be really appreciated.
Hey, I'm just the messenger. The heavy lifting is done by smarter members of the team.
I got disconnected from a game I was winning earlier today, it sucks but I'll live. However I've tried playing again since, to no avail. It just says connecting then a few seconds later it changes to reconnecting and it stays like that forever (I imagine). I've logging off, closing the app ect ect but nothing seems to work, any ideas? I can still play online chess fine, if that makes any diffrence.
