I'm not sure if I get it and it's not really that funny or if I don't actually get it... :? :P

I don't like guys why create un-observable games...
And I don't like guys who are unfriendly...
And I don't like guys who join a game, say: "im rdy", and who are then leaving 5 seconds after the game has started...
And I don't like guys who...damned there is no one left who i don't like!
Theoretically there is no difference between theory and practice. Practically there is.

I hate people that join my ladder games and either pretend to be on it, or just say yes to get me to start. It's funny the first time but then it gets old.

I hate losing for any reason than my own mistakes.

I hate games that are non-observable with only one person in them.

I hate when I accidentally close the game window on itself - during a match :augh: .

I don't like the fact that I get a runtime error and a crash EVERY GAME.

Hmm, but doesn't it make MORE sense that one player games are non-observable? Maybe they're the people who don't want to be with other people online for whatever reason, and just play on the server to eliminate turn loading.

Not turn-loading is a matter of self restraint, not of whether you play on the server or not :| .

Plus, playing on the server by yourself doesn't eliminate save-loading, because you can still have autosaves.

I thought auto-saves didn't work if you played on the server? Meh, I don't play by myself on the server, so I could be wrong.

Well, when people have only one person why not make a local game?. It also annoys me.

I hate the 1.8.0 lobby glitches and that I can't figure out how to update to get the version with the fixed lobby.

I tried downloading the newer version, it just gave me 1.8.0 again. (Well, I reinstalled it. When I search for wesnoth on the synaptic package manager it only shows 1.8.0)
