Title: corrupt live games
Post by odin73 on Jan 16th, 2013, 9:55am
I wouldnīt say thatīs a capital problem, but since a couple of days, thereīs 4 games being stated as live games that are actually broken/dead:

Guest19624 vs ArmiaaScore
focal             vs Loc2007
cloudkill        vs gangserveggies
Aamira2006 vs Lemmiwinks.

In all cases gold is shown to be online+to have a open game window ("*").
Can anybody delete the games (of course Omar could) and who knows the reason for the broken data?

While fixing something in preparation for the World Championship, Omar overhauled some of the gameroom code.  Major changes always seem to have unforeseen consequences.  :)  I believe Omar is too busy to read the forum, and that the best way to contact him about site issues is via this page:  http://arimaa.com/arimaa/contact/

Thanks for pointing that out Odin73.  It's been annoying me too!

There appears to be 6 corrupt games now - 2 with Therin8 vs botAamira2006Fast.

Fritz, thanks for the reply. For my side, itīs not mainly the annoying point, I was just afraid that there could be some hardware server problem (hard disk/memory errors or so) that may cause much more severe problem such as data loss , breakdown etc.

Meanwhile there two further bad datasets in the list
2x Therin8 vs. Aamira2006.

My I send him that hint or not? If there is no danger of some greater problem, I would wait until wc has finished.

Certainly you should make use of the contact page; if he is too busy to fix it, he won't fix it.  :)
