It happens sporadically, ie once every one to two weeks. Last night was unusual as it happened a few times. Sometimes, everyone is suddenly migrating, I wait around for a while and the game continues but says everyone else has left the game, so I am the only person left.

When I leave the game, I end up at the initial menu screen

I'm from Australia, so I usually play at around 7pm here, which is early morning in the states. I have been noticing recently a lot of disconnects from Ironclad Online, with no explanation, and wonder if that's when IO gets a going over or something? Has anyone else been experiencing this? I had three games end tonight just when they were getting started, which is very frustrating. I've decided to give up tonight, and hope for better luck tomorrow. I was having crashes and minidu
