Default Re: Fools Lament II - Newbies Welcome

A couple of things come to mind as possibilities:

1) You were pretty close to the end of the time limit. You started your turn before the timer ended and while you were taking your turn ( at this point in the game turns start taking a long time ) the game hosted. Then you ended your turn which summitted the turn to the server, however it had already hosted so it told you had a stale turn and dl'ed the new turn.

2) You checked one time eariler to see if everyone had taken their turn and dl'ed your turn without you knowing. You did nothing with your turn since you did not even know that you had dl'ed it. As soon as you connected the next time the program uploaded your turn for you behind the scenes thus "playing" your turn. Since you were the Last person it quickhosted while you were doing what you thought would be your turn. When you ended your turn the client attempted to upload but found out that the previous turn had already been hosted and dl'ed the new turn.

Actually I'm betting it was #1 since it said "stale turn" I don't think ( but don't know for sure ) that the 2nd sceanrio would cause a "stale turn" message. It would just execute nothing.
