Sadly as I'm new to playing a game with someone else ( never so far ) and not a computer expert all I can say is. When I accepted the invite to play by hitting "accept " a small grey box appeared saying something like logged out too many times or 3 times you'll have to do something but can't remember what. Is there a page I can go to to see the exact way to play against another opponent. I got the invite after status was set at " ready for a game" and I ticked the box " any ". Thanks for reply. Might be my computer or other reasons ( possibly my " dinosaur computer status ). Cheers Alan
