MP players going AWOL

During the last few months I have been claiming many online games that have been started, with some of those having had less than 1 or 2 turns played. Others suddenly surrender mid battle when the game is still very much undecided, with no warning. Of those battles that are active, sometimes 2 or 3 weeks pass before i get 1 turn. I would have to say that about 70 % of my games go like this now and MP is not much fun anymore because of it.
Does anyone else have these problems or is it just me

I only play against people I know will play regularly and communicate it when they can't. It's a common problem amongst PBEM gamers. If you want a regular game (1-2 turns per day) start a MP game and PM me the password. Cheers

I'll gladly play you both - don't like quitters either.

Guilty as charged. I returned from vacation and the next day, Afrika Korp came out. My apologies to the MP players I've had on hold these past 4 weeks. I will get back to the matches Monday. Thanks for the poke soldier.

eggmanrc, you'll notice I also claimed our paired game after a few weeks. The urge to keep my overview of active games clear was too big, alas. Those were some very dynamic games with interesting attacks and counter-attacks, so maybe we'll get to do a rematch sometime.

Soldier>if those games were started before the latest patch some players have had trouble upgrading..or cannot upgrade for whatever reason..
