[Matrix aware/possibly improved] No mail from matrix on game turn?

Post by Cavalry Corp »

Since the 07 patch I seem to be getting no notifications from the game telling me its my turn ?
One of my opponents ended a game on a ladder because he thought i had just dropped it - and I was winning :)

I've emailed Matrix about this since yours is the third person that has posted about emails not arriving. There were no changes with this in any of the updates (at least nothing intentional). Will let you know if I hear anything. Since there are over 100 games on the server now, I'm assuming that most players are still getting email messages. Would be good to hear confirmation from someone using one of the later versions that they still are getting emails.

I have not received an email since 30th April. I sent a turn that had some error message that I could not record. Since then turns are processing correctly but no confirmation emails are being received.

I'm not receiving any email notifications since the beginning, so since the initial release version.

Matrix has been alerted. They said it might be some issue with spam filters. They are looking into it.

OK can assure you its not mine and I check the spam as well. It was working fine for a while. I actually had two games running....

Also while they are at it it would be nice if when a scn finshed it told you the result. Matrix could use this to have its own league and also collect date to help re balance scns for future patches, its like mass play testing.

No it's not on your end. They said they have to constantly adjust things so they aren't considered spam by some lists.

For months I have not received a single notification about new forum posts in watched threads, is this a spam problem too?
Works for private messages though which is strange - either all or nothing.

I suggest you guys open support tickets with Matrix about these email issues.

You can see there is no load game button only resign.

This is my first experience of using this method and PBEM is much better sorry. I do not see what this server offers over standard PBEM.

It says it is your opponents turn. Have you contacted him? Maybe the email is old?

I have awaiting h9s reply - So apologies - I assume the server is catching up or something but yesterday it told me it was my turn. Never mind hope it resolves in time.

From my side I have the "reverse" problem for I receive emails saying its my turn when my opponents are still playing their turn.
I notice that I didn't received emails for my last two turns.
Perhaps it arrives with a delay because of a problem with the server.

I'm now receiving email alerts at apparently random intervals, ie telling me it's my turn when my opponent hasn't finished.

I'm guessing these are all the turn alerts that never arrived in the first place and the system is catching up, but let's see how it progresses.
