Game freeze in auction

Round 8 energy auction, my antivirus started to update and took focus out of game window so I panicked, clicked the game window and pressed up to run to buy. However, the only seller came down the last minute (and I had antecipated so I ended up as the only seller). The other players and the timer froze and I couldn't sell, so the only solution was to kick me out.

Nice. Getting kicked out increases my played game count (and decreases the winning percentage) and it still increases my abandon count (if I recall correctly).

Seems like the Master Server is down, local should still work. Except then there's weird lag problems that kill the auction just like that. Boo.

That's a bug and we aim to correct it in the next version. Thanks for finding it.

It's quite harsh that you get both a lost game and an abandonment for being kicked. It might be changed in the future.
