Challenge Cleanup

Dec 18, 2008 03:25 pm

We have completed an update to challenge module which fixed a bunch of bugs and problems in challenge mode.

First of all, we have fixed an issue in initializing a new challenge due to an pending challenge is detected when you aren't see any related challenge in your user challenge page. This fix includes refunding bid golds when a challenge is confirmed/accepted but expired after the lifetime of the challenge.

Here are the rules how the system terminate floating challenges:

  1. A challenge is requested but is not accepted/confirmed by the opponent after * 6 days. No winner is declared in this challenge and golds are refunded to challenger.
  2. A challenge is accepted/confirmed by opponent and neither of the player complete and submit the score within *3 days after confirmation. No winner is declared in this challenge and golds are refunded to challenger.
  3. A challenge is accepted/confirmed by opponent and one of the player has submitted the score within *3 days after confirmation. Player that submitted score win the challenge and grab the golds.

* the lifetime of "Waiting" challenge is 6 days where as lifetime of "Accepted" challenge is 3 days after confirmation date. The days are subject to change in the future where necessary.

As this update clean up all the "sleeping" challenge that is floating in the system, you might receive a few notifications and emails indicating the result of your previous challenges that is expired. This is will refund all the golds to you if the challenge is cancelled by the system.

We will try our best to make the challenge feature as perfect as possible. I hope this update fixed all the challenge related problems that you might have encountered.

Thank you and happy challenging!
