Aren't we supposed to be able to quit a game without any problems as long as it hasn't actually started?
I finally did the SP2 Windows XP upgrade and I had been reading that folks have been having problems having to restore a former setting in order to play;
So I saw the opportunity to see if the map would open for me and I joined "Slow 16".
The map did finally open after openning and closing some of the other screens but I really didn't want to play in that game so I quit it before I got a message that it had started. Now I don't see the game as available to play and it is listed as in progress.
Sorry folks I didn't mean to mess up your game but I didn't want to start a game only to find I had a problem to play it either.
I also hope I'm not penalized for a quit but I suspect I will be.

Thanks guys
Yes it looks like I'm off the hook as far as getting penalized but I really am sorry about leaving an empty territory in that game. I really didn't mean to mess it up.
