Timeout with ~6 seconds on the clock

Sort:

I'm regularly getting timeout loses in bullet where I still have decent time on the clock, like 4-5-6 seconds. Please see example below and I definitely didn't spend 5 seconds thinking. Is something wrong with my browser or PC? What can I do to prevent this?

Yes, it is clear, this is the time I had before my opponent made his/her move. And if that would be 1-2 seconds, I could say, I moved too slowly, but I'm sure I didn't spend almost 6 seconds for this move. I'm also getting a message, that the game timed out of before my move reached the server. That makes me think something might be wrong with the browser/connectivity.

Hi, 

Maybe worth checking your browser and a few other things to see if it helps
