Someone verified that it was a problem on other servers than mine so I stopped looking for server problems.

The fixes people give seem to be along the line of "first connect bombs and second connect works if you slip in while its still resetting something".

So now I have my desktop is connected to the game and sitting on the "Waiting for game info" screen provinding everyone with a second-connection. Its only a temp fix for some of the larger games Im hosting. I dont plan to do the same with all of the blitzes. Ive reported the problem in the beta group to the devs.

Shocked me when I connected first try as well. Was just getting used to connect, back out, connect again.

OK testing a temp-fix on the connect problem.
Let me know if it helps.
It does help for sure ! No more connecting issues for me since your new fix.

No problems here as well. And I wouldn't worry about the blitz games, as they don't have this problem.

Hoping we get a turn in tonight, have to travel (again () and won't be back till about midnight EST Sunday. Won't be taking the laptop as its family this time, so access is pretty much impossible.

Pssh...putting family before gaming! What kind of person are you?! Oh, right, a good one.

Only need 3 more people to do their turns before you get your wish Jutetrea.

Sorry guys...i have been holding up turns. I do some farming along with my real job and on the days I farm, they are very long. In addition, yesterday family rolled in from out of town. Should move a lot smoother now.

No problems here. If Gandalf can increase the timeout this weekend I'd be very happy. Don't want to get in trouble with the wife!

Is that a general request? To lengthen the timer?
