Also, i remember one game where i havent made a move yet (just replayed my opponent's turn twice) but still the error message i mentiioned also appeared.

Well there you have it. Adam and Alex fixed it so that would happen. There was basically this cheating technique where you start a game, make a move, and automatically reset it by deleting/reinstalling. The move you haven't sent is saved on your device, and the move you make is gone when you delete it. The point of the move is just scouting your opponent so you can make a good move without the effects of fog of war. So to prevent this, they would keep you out from the battle, and the opponent would win... eventually. You can't give up, you can't do anything but wait for the game to time out. You definitely should have played the move before deleting/reinstalling the app.

Oh, i thought all moves made were sent to the servers, even when the turn isnt finished. I have this (bad) habit of making piecemeal moves and not finishing a turn in one go, so when i reinstalled the app the anti cheat fix kicked in. Anyways, sorry to my opponents rcsum, janamphet, theparadoxturtle, jon8898, h_, pyp3r, and thehoodslasthope. Wasnt my intention to prolong our respective games, or to cheat the fow for that matter. i would resign the games if i could.
