1/10 games i lose connection, including 2 finals in the past week, and loads of ranked. This never used to happen when i played a few months ago :( is it something to do with the update?

I give up.

next time could you do a forum search as there are a lot of topics relating about this already.

Though to be fair, it is his first post, everyone else has no excuse however.

ok i didnt see that, welcome to the forums.

CAP

Easy lads, its his first post ever.

And yes it is something to do with a recent update. However in future post on this thread;

Too be honest in my opinion, i think you should abolish the "abandoned games" part of a players profile it makes stuff look tackie.. and half of the time its really not the players fault that he abandoned the game as this thread is named.. cause of connection issues.. i myself have abandoned a few games due to this?

What you think?!

im starting to think ive never met someone as nice as james,

fair play.

The reason why the abandoned games stat is there goes back to the early days on the site.

Before you could continue your break, when the opponent left, it ended the break there and you didn't get credited with the break you was on. So the abandoned games showed you if a player left a game often.

I have wayyyy to many on mine already, but it aint doing any harm being there.

Do you just leave every game you're losing that isn't going down to the last ball?

A few due to connection (Orange is not the best internet provider, trust me)

A few due to that i cba, left on a couple of max's aswell, which isn't right.

And a few more because they have won and i cba waiting around, very impatient.

dame your mad, lol,

107 or nothing,

Er dame ... think you might have a problem with your stats... usuall Wins + Losses + Abandonned = 100% ... yours is nearly 150%

Something you want to share with us perhaps....?

For example, you have won 56% of your games and lost 44%. Yet you have still abandoned 6% of your games. But abandoned games are counted as losses so it doesnt have an effect on an overall percentage.

I'll second that

Sorry but to me that makes no sense.

It's not there to help, it's to inform.
