I was playing someone when they left the room and the scores never came up. With only the the black ball remaining. i clicked the blue button for them to take the shot.. there was no-one but me in the room and the timer went down and i'm still here now waiting for something to happen.

The clock is on 0 but if i go to join the Members bar or another games it says that i will forfit the game.. now it will be another points loss and another abandonded game on my stats

I definitely was trying to help tornado with this..

had his opponent log out of the game server and it still wasn't fixed, and then when tornado left the game he didn't lose points or anything. and the game results never showed up in his account...

Poo, he tried leaving the game, and as far as I know the points still weren't given to him

I think it is a bug anyway. So you asked him to re-take the shot after he left the room?
an interesting tactic by all counts.

It would be interesting to find out whether you lost the points in the end tornado?

no i did't intened to press it magic, i left the game and it didn't give me a point loss or win.

Even on my results it isn't on there. i left the game and it didn't go on my abandinded games... like a phantom game...... oOoOoOoOoOo SPOOKY.

Actually makes sense when you think about it.

If you had left the game without pressing the button, you would have got the points. But by pressing it you handed the game over to a non-existant player. That player obviouly couldn't take the shot, and since you were the only player in the room there was no-one to get a random shot penalty, so tha game hung.

You wouldnt have got the points because it was your non-existant opponents shot when you left, and they didnt because they werent there!

What happened is perfectly logical, but yes, its a bug, since the game should have ended when you pressed the button and there was no opponent.

Same thing just happened to me, i clicked the 'retake shot' button unaware that my opponent had left and it just froze. No results came up though.
