Hello, i was wondering how many multiplayer games you have were the opponent hasn't responded in over 2 weeks.
I have 3 which will turn into 4 in two days.
How about you :?:

I am waiting on a few.

I am waiting on a couple as well. I have one that I have not heard from since December 7th, and another one that I have not heard from since the 26th of November. May have something to do with the Holidays though and I am patient. :D

Zero.

I have played about 40+ multiplayer and they all finished quickly. However I haven't played much in the last few weeks, maybe the novelty of playing is wearing off and ppeople are less eager to press head with finishing games now? The competition has sparked new life into me. Martin and I finished our two Round1 competition games in 24hrs! hehe

There is always a problem on multi-player with players who just stop playing a game. Often they are trying to play too many games. Sometimes they are just losing. Eventually the system will away multi-player games to the person who last completed his turn. Keith

There are also those of us who have an apparently corrupted/lost game who can't do anything about it and whose opponent doesn't seem to frequent the forums.

Chris,

If a game file is corrupted then contact slitherine with your details.

I posted a note in the support forum but never received any response. Is there a better place to contact them about this? The error I get is "Sorry an error occurred getting game instance 1490. Could not open instance file." The error occurred initially when I attemped to save the game before completing my turn to upload it and it appeared to try to upload the game anyway and encountered an error doing so. I now get the error try ing to get the game from the server so the problem appears to be on the server end.

I'll talk to Keith - I'm not sure what he wants us to do with a file that the game doesn't load :)
