My table here (http://en.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=20953909) is still showing up as one of my "In Progress" games, but when I click into it, it shows that it is abandoned. It's part of a tournament, so I know I can't get the game back - but is there anything that can be done so that it doesn't show up as an In Progress game?

Thanks!

Hi,

The game will remains in your "game in progress" some weeks but it won't bother you (it will never ask you to play).

Bonjour

je voudrais savoir s'il est possible d'abandonner un tournoi sans être pénalisée? Parce que plusieurs tournois n'ont plus aucun sens du fait que les parties ont été considérées comme nulles et qu'on a presque tous (mais pas tous) 0,5points pour ces parties-là... Bref, ces tournois-là sont complètement faussés mais on continue à les jouer, je trouve que c'est sans intérêt et j'aimerais les quitter mais comment?

Merci

However, there is one outstanding issue that I have not seen anyone else mention: that is that all of my turn games now have unlimited time limits set. I really hope that no one will take advantage of these but I fear some people will.

Is this issue known about and if so are there plans to fix it, or is that information lost?
I'm having this issue as well. In one game I'm playing, one of the players hasn't made a move in weeks, and I was just about to boot her before the server crashed. Now, she has 140 days to make her next move. Mods, can you please fix this and put the original time limit settings back in place? Thanks for your help.

Bonjour,

Ma partie Caylus http://fr.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=21038261 n'a pas pu commencer.. Dans le cadre du tournoi, serait-il possible d'annuler le résultat qui est survenu suite au bug du 3 may. J'y ai perdu pas loin de 40 ELO sans raison.

Merci pour le suivi.

Hi,

Unfortunately we had to give 140 days of thinking time to all tables concerned by the incident, to make sure that no one will have a penalty after there was restored ...

Hi,

How do I understand this answer? Is it the same explanation for my case? Not possible to cancel the result?

What are the consequences for the games

Depending on the games, between 0 and 9 of the last moves has been cancelled (like a "jump in the past"), with an average of 4 moves.

Note : A "move" is not a turn : if you are doing several action during a turn, there are several moves.

Some of games couldn't be restored because only very few moves were played - but our first priority was to save games that were running for a long time.

About turn-based tournament : unfortunately, we couldn't remove additional game results generated by the abandoned games. Depending on the tournament system, this could break completely the tournament or just add some "0.5" points to every participant.


Hello,

With your explanations, how must I understand what will happen with the game num http://fr.boardgamearena.com/#!table?table=21038261 ?

This game didn't start and I was considered has loser? Must I wait the end of the tournament to be sure that everything will be ok for the next steps of this tournament? I'm now in 1/4 final than how is it possible that I've "lost" the first round?

Thanks for your attention
