I was in a small cton with 3 other players when my router cuts off my connection. I play with it for half a minute and get it back up then I get back on and try to return to the game. after trying several times and reloading several times (I got stuck on a peer) I got a message saying the peer I wasn't connecting to had a possible firewall issue and then a game slot was closed. I just wanted to know if I am suppose to report or what. Thank you in advance for any replies

Well I already reported matches so it doesn't matter also I forgot to mention I saw the host's c4f and try to add to friend list but no response; obviously I'd like to know what should have happened anyways

If you drop from a game, the remaining players are required to wait 10 minutes for you to return. While waiting for you, someone from the game should be checking the lobby to see if you are there and if you are possibly having connection problems, as you were in this case. Once the peer troubles were communicated, the game could have been saved and reloaded from the lobby so that the game could continue with all players. If someone drops and 10 minutes goes by, the remaining players can choose to continue and the dropped player should report to all. Also, anyone on c4f cannot chat through private messages to people signed in through Gamespy, if you want to try to contact them you need to chat in the lobby or install cf4 yourself from www.civ4fans.com and contact them through there.

this dont allways work as not all the ladder players have c4f i think it should be made compulsory for the ladder to have c4f as i couldnt reconnect to a game the other day and in fact the host firewall rejected me since the patch came out

If no one from the game bothers to keep checking the lobby up until the 10min then you are not libel to report. If you took longer than 10min then they continued with cause.

Hello Admins & fellow Civers please give me advise on the following. #1) Before a duel game went into staging room we both mention we are ladders. #2) Then the duel match was suggested. #3) Upon entering the duel match He tells me we will be playing CCC rules, I agree. #4) I take one of his cities, choke & over power him with military from the start till the end. He claims I am lucky & that God is preventing him from winning this match. And then he concedes. After the game he says "We never mentioned that it was a ladder match & next time if You beat me I will report to me 3 times." "And I'm in the penalty box right now." ? Ummm..? what was all that ladder talk and then CCC rules about then?? Do I file a non report or do I just let it slide?

i would love to know this player was. but it's probably best to keep his identity secret. some players complain and complain and complain and just can not admit they played bad, and that may be, just may be u are a better player. but blaming a loss on the other player's divine favour. . well that is a new one to me. with regards to ur issue: being in the penalty box means the admins have banned u for a week or so for non-reports or something. sounds like u didnt really agree that this would count for the ladder. i guess he didnt advertise it as ladder because he is in the penatly box. may be u just took it as being implied. so really u must let it slide.
