The clock has jumped from purple (the beginning) to orange in 1 second, this has happend to me multiple of times and just now lost me a game. Hopefully this can be fixed.

I've seen it happen to Sano twice and someone else once, in SI, pparently clock is at full then suddenly is only 2 or so seconds away from being over. Think you guys should do the wipe soon.

It could just be lag so you dont see it go down.

Edit: just a thought.

If that were to happen to me, I would right away pass my turn.

did it pause and then not move for a while before it turned orange?
if so, it could just be a bad case of lag.

Lag, and when there are less units, it goes faster. A combination probably causes this.

What I think it is:

More of less, the previous turn was ended (of the other player). Your computer took awhile to get that message, so it doesn't look like lag, it just looks like the other person didn't end their turn. Then, all the lagged messages are sent and the timer gets wacked down quick. The solution, as with any lag, is hard to figure out.

Hmm, I call lag! The other suggestions above me are good aswell.

I've had the same problem happen to me twice. It doesn't appear to be a lag because it's not like the game stops or anything. It's really weird, cliche made a thread about it before when it happened in a game we played.

Could be an odd type of lag wherein only the javascript timer lags. Not sure how the game is setup. Anything is possible.

Well hopefully this will get fixed when the wipe comes. If it happens again i guess ill post about it and contact a moddy or admin.
