    This is the thread for all the problematic games out there. The ones with bugs that are stopping us from playing or the bugs that just seem all weird. So please report here if you have a problem with a particular game.

    I have one to start. It's game 9651. The first problem in this game was the chat went nuts on us and stopped working. Since then, there were a bunch of other problems after it. The second weird thing is that the people who lost or quit didn't lose any points and the people who were still in the game didn't gain any points either. The third weird thing was that when the second to last player abandoned the game, Hal9000, and me being the last player left, I was still able to move the units and play around and every time I ended my turn, it was then my turn again. There was this button in the bottom panel that said "End this game" so I pressed it and somehow the game "ended". But it still says, "PeacefulBlueSky is playing..." but right next to that it says, "This game is over." So somehow it's still active, it is still styled green in my HQ and it is still recorded as a new game count in the title. So then, the last weird thing is that Hal9000's name that was crossed-out is now undone and his name is normal again (I think this happened after the update).

    Its very difficult to debug games that went through several stages of the code. There were some bugs that messed with ending games, abandoning/surrendering players. I hope that we were able to fix most of them. But there are still things to be done. If you come accross these quirks in the newer games (lets say anything with a number greater then 12000) it is far easier to debug things. As I see, you can move the game to the archive, so it should not block a slot for you.

    That's cool. Do you mind if I delete it or do you want it archived to look at later?

    i have a game, http://weewar.com/game/10020, in my archive that i'm also wondering if it would be ok to delete.  after the patch weekend it got fixed enough to the point where i could archive but it still is active oddly enough.
