[PC]Challenges not registered?

(Scrupus) #1

I wonder if I have the same problem as iwound mentioned earlier - some of my challenges are not registered, at least I can not see them in the “waiting for” list. It worked ok for the first 2 or 3 ones, but the 2 last ones didn’t register - I think. Also happens with “random opponent” - tried twice now, it just disappears.

I experienced this in the Dev version also (have not tried in gold yet) against random opponent. I never got to finish any games :frowning:

(Or rather, my games expired, both against opponents and waiting for. It might be a seperate issue.)

Is the account you’re playing on “Scrupus”? If yes, can you tell me at what time appropriately you started a game which disappeared (+timezone)? If it’s not your name, still give me the time but also your actual nickname.

Generally if you create challenges and the person rejects it, the item will disappear from the list.

Yeah account name Scrupus, feel free to check the logs. I just tried to add one now about 10 minutes ago, ie. around 22 CEST, against a playername starting with seb. It vanished, I tried to challenge the same account a bit earlier today as well, around the time this thread was started.

The problem is that those that vanish doesn’t show up in the list at all, so I don’t think they are rejected. What happens is that I pick a friend, pick a map etc, and do my move. When it works, they shows up instantly in the “waiting for” list. When it doesn’t work, they’re just gone.

For the record I also tried 2 times with toomic yesterday (I think), which failed. Then I tried to challenge him again today, and that one worked - it’s still waiting in my list.

Can’t find anything right now. Looks like that game never happened. Might have to add some extra logging to see what’s actually going on.

ok, thanks - let us know when extra logging is on and we can report timestamps for lost challenges. Just tried 2 more right now, but they where lost as well

(digibob) #7

Are you sending a chat message when you create the game?

(Scrupus) #8

Usually not, and especially not for those that got lost yesterday.

Just a quick update: we’re hunting this down. Hang with us :slight_smile:

(Scrupus) #10

cool - good hunting and just ask if any testing is needed :slight_smile:

(mitsuhiko) #11

We found where the problem lies. Hopes are it does not happen again with the changes we deployed to the servers.

Great news - thanks! :smiley:

Works like a charm so far, haven’t had any lost challenges after this. Thanks again for the rapid fix :slight_smile:
