just plaed against jake_blues, then i had a tourny invite and so i had to leave the match. jake won because i abandoned the match but the abandoned match does not show on my profile.. anyone else experiencing this? i remember this happening a while ago too, thought it a bit odd :\

Well spotted!

I have been on 13 abandoned matches for over a year now and I did recently leave a straight game due things happening at home.

I'm pretty sure I have left more too.

works fine on snooker as i left 2 orig games (1 due to needing to go and 1 due to crashing) and both showed.

pool i can't comment on because im not on enough to leave games

I've noticed this too. I've been leaving games every day to play in tournaments and their has also been times when I've left the room just as someone has came im to play me. Even though it says "match abandoned as cmurphy decided not to play" in the chat box, it never shows on my profile.

so it's not just me then

with all the new changes having gone on here lately the abandoned match issue probably isnt too important to the runners/programmers of the site, and it doesn't really affect the actual game. just thought i'd mention it as it was bugging me a little

yours sincerely,
mr pedantic giant

Smurfy that means you just said no not that you abandoned it

But I never clicked 'No'. I got fed up waiting for someone to join my room, so I was looking for another room to join and as I was about to click 'Play' someone came into my current room. I didn't click No, I just clicked to join another room.

Also there are plenty of times where I've left in the middle of a frame due to my time running out at the library

An abandoned game is when you leave the game once it has started.

If you leave the room before clicking "Play" or "No" then this is not abandoning the game.
