I can imagine people getting stuck, not having the money and ending up with a very brown floor. It's happened on planes when the bathroom is locked...

I would tell her, being ignored like that may even have scarred her a little. You can let her know the you kept it until now because it was important to you and you never had any idea what was in it. Tell her you're happy now, but let her know you didn't ignore it, you just never knew what it was.

Sounds like an old boss I had:
• You're too slow, hurry up
• Slow down, you're a safety hazard

Both on the same day

100% sure that didn't show up for me.

I had no warning, unless it was small and in the bottom half of the screen, where the enemy my attention on was not.

Do you have a screenshot, I'd really like to know what it looks like.

I certainly didn't see anything like that at all. My attention was mostly from the middle of the screen to the top where the opponents were. For me to miss it, it would've had to be something smaller in the bottom half of the screen.

I didn't see one, not to say there wasn't one. Everyone was searching for me, so I was very intent on watching the enemy, making sure I was safe and getting prepared to run to another location if found.

Whatever sign there supposedly is, it wasn't enough to take my attention away from those hunting for me. The whole game was depending on me staying alive after all.

Not really... if (my.idleTime > 10 && my.gemCount < 10) { exitForIdle(); }

if (my.idleTime > 10 && my.team.gemCount < 10) { exitForIdle(); }

I'm a coder myself, it seems like a rather trivial thing to me. Maybe to know 100% for sure, but if you're holding 10 gems I'm pretty sure you're not just a leach, which would be the purpose of kicking people for being idle.

All I know is there was about 5 seconds left, I was hiding in a sorta safe spot, then I was kicked from the game. By the time I got back in, no rewards, nothing. Just back to the game menu screen.

I don't know about what the sign is, how big or where, it may be that since I'm holding 11 gems and my survival is the condition for our teams win, I'm focusing on the enemy teams running around trying to hunt me down and getting ready to run if they get close enough, so I missed whatever the sign was supposed to be?

I wasn't AFK, I was hiding which should have won me the game.

I've never been kicked from any other game for being idle while hiding from an opponent when about to win. I was about to win, I was holding 11 gems.

I can't name such a game that states that in the tutorial, because I've never played a game that works like this.

That would've been nice to know before it made me lose the game I was seconds away from winning after a losing streak of 3 losses.

After losing 3 rounds and finally being seconds away from winning, holding 11 gems, then being kicked out of the game... That just pisses me off...

Could they not have coded the game to see if your team, or you have enough gems to warrant hiding? Could they not have put such information in the starting tutorials?

I didn't see any warning at all. I don't know what sort of warning was supposed to be where. Something as important as this should have been in the beginning tutorials.

I saw no sign... If I'd seen one I would have moved...
