"Too Many Total Games or Challenges in Progress"

Post by Navaronegun »

What does this message mean on the Multiplayer list? I get this when I attempt to start a game on my PC or iPad. Never seen that before and I have had a lot more going before now. Or is this a new "server busy" message? Which it might be, because I can't accept any challenges either. To be clear, I can receive or send pre-existing games, but cannot begin challenges or accept them.

I suggest to stop pissing off BA players just shut down the server for a day or two and track down this bug. I would save a lot of anger management :) (and time)

This message still persists as of 0748 EST. What does this message mean on the Multiplayer list? I get this when I attempt to start a game on my PC or iPad.

There is a limit to the number of games and challenges you can have in progress at one time. It just sounds like you have run up against it?

Hmmm - thinking about it, I think that there was a bug where it got turned off accidentally for a while, which might explain why some people have never seen the message before.

I currently have 13 total games and challenges. I thought the limit was 20?

I'm stuck too. I have 14 games at the moment. I'm sure I've had more than this in the past.

I'll give it a whirl in amn hour or two. I have a feeling now, that it won't work. I'm dismayed that we hear that "there used to be a limit, but we dunno" from Slitherine. Not confidence inspiring.

"Too Many Total Games or Challenges in Progress" - persists

Post by Navaronegun »

As of 1937 EST, I still cannot accept or post any challenges. This has been a persistant issue, on both iPad and PC, since yesterday at 1434 EST. i currently have a total of 14 total challanges and ongoing games. Could someone please respond and let me know what the issue is?

Thanks,

Navaronegun
