This is new!

Just tried to enter the first round game of the UK 2am tourney, but when i clicked on the invite, it said the game was full!

Nothng i could do, so i went to watch the room, (spinner v jordan50) and my opponent was in there with another player!

We were chatting in the "wtf" veign, when a message came up sayin i had been disqualified for no attendance, yet i was there in the room!

So, does this mean that players can effectively butt-in to tourney games? I thought they were invite only?

They are invite-only spinner, I guess it was a bug, There was another thread accusing someone of being a cheater for a similar reason. You seem familiar with computers so I'm sure you're also familiar with their random tendencies...

Certainly am! Was an interesting experience tho...

Soz i didnt get back to u last night, firefox crashed. Again.

wait wait wait....
did this guy actually jump into your game...or was he/she invited too?

I've never seen this happen before!

Yeah was the other guy invited too?

As i understand it yes. they carried on and played, but i got dq'd. The rourney listed the game as between me an jordan50 tho..

man thats odd...
so 3 players were in this incident,,,,surely one mustve been classed as through on a bye...all i can think of is that this player was sitting in the dark, then all of a suddden invited to a game?

im as confused as you lot...

yeah same here, that is a new kind of problem

Certainly you would get disqualified if you were only watching the game.

The bug is that the other player entered the tournament room. This shouldn't be possible, but have checked the code and it could happen under certain very rare circumstances.

I will fix this for the next release.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for the detailed description of the problem!

No worries! I enjoy hidden features in programs

Are you sure you din't click 'watch game' ...cos you're a bit thick, aren't you?

And how do you do that from the tourney invitation button clever clogs?

Wubble...

Ok lads, break it up.

EDIT: "fight, fight, fight!"

Ah, no u couldn't. Fair enough. I'm a bit thick, u understand.

Hang on, u didn't go to play game, and then try and go in the back door via watch so you could see yourself lose whilst...no, no forget it.
