Post by EdLee »

Did anyone else experience frequent disconnects from IGS recently (end of August...eaarly Sept, 2013) ?
On the gIGo client. Thanks.

I was playing with Tetsuki for a bit and then it failed to mark dead stones properly, so I gave up on IGS again.

Thanks. Is Tetsuki a username?

Sorry, I should have been more specific. It's the official Pandanet client for IGS on mobile devices.

I play/watch games on IGS pretty regularly, and did not experience any connection problems. Sometimes, usually during title matches with high number of spectators, the games list can load slowly, but everything works just fine. I'm using GoPanda2 or panda-tetsuki (with the latter being more stable).

I'm playing on IGS with gIGo linux version and yes, there are bugs often. The games list load slowly, I need to click multiple times to put stone on goban. Recently I switched to GoPanda2 and everything is ok, it works in browser and have beautiful design.
