Been playing for like 8-9 years. Just recently about on in 8 games the game just stops… the HSTracker timer eventually shows the other player turn way over time then the game “stops responding”. i close it and come back to rejoin my match. This last time, there was no match to rejoin. I’m a network engineer and no problems with my internet.
This actually means that your client stopped responding to the server. From your opponent’s perspective, you just stopped playing, and burned the rope on every turn, giving therm an easy win.
Probably because the game was already over. Your opponent took advantage of your absence and won easily.
These problems are often caused not by actual network outages. As I said above, it is an error in the client where it just stops responding to the game server.
