How to resume a game on Tygem

Post by Euphony »

Hello.

I started playing on Tygem, and I am often disconnected. I am able to log back in right away.

Last time I was disconnected, when I logged back in, there wasn't a prompt to resume the game. I am guessing that my opponent left the server after I disconnected. I had just killed a couple of his groups, and he was in a losing position and thinking for a long time when I disconnected.

Any idea how to resume this sort of game or even see the game in question? I can't seem to find any feature for resuming a game in the English client, and the game doesn't show up in my games list. I can't seem to find record of the game at all.

Thanks,
Euphony

Hello,

On Tygem, once disconnected you get 5 minutes to log back, if not you lose the game. If you get disconnected three(?) times during a game, then you lose the game.

The last one may seem harsh but I guess it is there to prevent people from disconnecting on purpose and using the 5 minutes as extra thinking time.

What is strange is that these games should show up in your game list. Have you checked the folder on your computer?

Another thing is that if one player disconnects, the other player is free to leave the game and it will be as if the game never happened (which is probably the case here).
