Gear & Piston - table loading stuck

I play turn based, id 21650024

http://de.4.boardgamearena.com/gearnpis ... e=21650024

The application does not load - the game is stuck.
This seems to be a bug already reported.

As it is my turn I want to ask what shall I do with that match, or what could possibly be done to fix it?

Thanks

@pikiou said -If I remember- that this game needs a new "re-work", he can replay some bugs but can't fix them.

Try to talk with him about it via private message. Good luck!

Nothing happened so far.

Even if this bug will never be fixed (as I have read now in an older post) the affected tables should be removed quickly.

Every time I click on "go to the next table" for turn based games I come back to this table where I am stuck - very annoying :(

This ugly table still blocks my list - will it be there now until the end of times?

The table has been deleted automatically now.

If there are bugs which will deliberately not be fixed there should be a warning when opening a table or the game marked as beta, or better removed until it works properly.

It's somewhat funny that the bugs won't be fixed because the game is not popular enough - but how can you expect it getting popular when there are so many bugs? How does that fit with the BGA quality standards?

Completely agree. I actually had a similar thing happen with Gear & Piston a year back. I stopped playing it (partly because I found the strategy dull but mostly because of how buggy that game is!) At the time, it broke the game if anyone tried to replay last moves.

Honestly, it either needs to be fixed or removed.

I agree too.
Right now I'm stuck in a Tournament-game of Gear & Piston because a welknown bug makes the game unplayable/unaccessible.
In the same Tournament in a second game my workshop-action was skipped; also a welknown bug; wil loose me the game.
So those bugs totally ruin my tournament and wil cost me ElO and time-expel-penalty!
So unfair imo :( :( :(
