Is it possible the hang up issue has something to do with the ultra detailed turn reports? I still can't connect QQ

I was able to get my turn in, and I think I may have found a trick to doing it. I won't know if it worked or was just coincidence until next turn. What I did was I doubleclicked my shortcut for the game, it hung up and I doubleclicked the short cut again while the hung up instance was still hung up. The second instance of the exe I launched went straight to the game with no hesitation or hang ups.

It may have been coincidence, but if your hanging up, its worth a shot

I just tried it again, the method I listed has worked two times in a row now. Just double click the icon, let it hang up, double click a new instance, bam your in.

Its strange that all of the blitzes on this same server are having no problems.

Weird, Gandalf. I don't understand why it is just this one that is so......ahem......unlucky.
