What exactly is the problem? They use the same system so if one works they both should.

I couldn't get a turn to send last night either. I posted in the tourney thread. I had to kill the game.

I played the turn and it would not upload to server and send or save the turn. Unfortunately it was several games before I realized that this was a real problem. It worked the day before.

Thanks

Is it still failing to upload now? Or was this a time localised issue?

Cheers

Mine was last evening maybe a couple of hours before his problem. I clicked to end turn, the icon came up with waiting message. When it got to 1:00 it said that it failed to connect to the server and try again. I tried everything except surrender and finally alt + F4 to kill the game.
This morning I went into the game and there is no turn waiting for me but there is for my opponent dated 12/20 at 20 something hours which would be 8pm local. I am one hour behind central, -7 GMT.

I just checked after the update and the time was 22:38, not 20 something, which would be 10:38 local time. Either the timestamp is US EST or it went through after I went to bed.

I believe the server time is indeed EST.
