I was under the impression the game would drop all together when the time limit was reached.

It's also possible a host set the max number of players on the server to 0. This allows everyone in a game to finish the game, and when players = 0 on the server, the host does a shutdown/restart of the server.

In addition, I did an update to max game life value on all servers which was unlimited until today. It is now set to 9 hours since some stay afk in game for more than 10 hours.

Thanks.

Was doing a baal run with Slap and after getting to darkness and pkin Blades and juving up for PI darkness, we get "join failed" on every char that has left the game. We can join other games, but just not this one. ISO answers on why this happened. is the server being reset and its waiting for everyone to exit games? is there a time limit on game lengths with servers? it was on linux one for 9 hours. we did alot this game O_o... thats the only thing i can think of. iMP.

To specify, no chars can join the game atm. Every one gets "join failed" upon clicking join, it doesn't even go to loading screen then say "failed to join", just says "join failed" in place of the join game part of the screen

I had a issue just like this but the one thing that was differant was on Linex server after about 6 hours of cleaning hell wsk and castle I got this msg ( your time has bean reached do to a time limit.. I was like wtf this isn't B.net and why would someone set there server up on a timer ? To say I was pissed off I can only emagine if I was playing Hc that would have pissed me off even more.. But if there is servers here on Hu with bnet timers turn them the hell off ..

rofl jay, BLAME LEE! but what i dont get about the timer is it doesnt drop the game but just not let anyone join. seems we have a fair amount of servers though now days to not really need this timer. or atleast set it high so me and slap can drop about 90 unique items before we move onto baal lol. all in all we got "lee'd" that game.

Lee did it.. But really I can see having timers with a very large community.. This community isn't as big as it once was in 06 and 07..And even then I don't remmber a game dropping with a timer..Timers to me are just a lazy way of not checking your logs....
