Hi there,
Love the game, hate the servers. Most of the servers running all have short timelimits and the games (with very few exceptions) are forced to end as soon as things get interesting. Its really really annoying to spend 10 minutes working hard and then have it ended for no reason. Perhaps they have their reasons (I would understand if they were always full, so that it gives people a chance) but many of these reasons don't apply. It is frustrating.
Another complaint is about the server browser. It would be nice to have a manual refresh ability... an example of the usefulness of this is when you play a game, it ends, and you want to play again. One person usually joins a game and others look, but most times the serverlist doesn't refresh and the only way to do it in a timely manner is to quit the application and then it will refresh.
Thanks for listening.

If you're talking about the time-limit when playing a game, then it isn't ending for no reason, the time just ran out and the game ends. Of course, most games in Multiwinia (depending on the game mode) usually won't last for 10 minutes. This applies both online, and offline.
If this doesn't sound like what you're talking about, then please re-explain, because I must not understand. Thanks!

In my experience, the server browser refreshes every time you load it up. Thus, if you hit the back button on the server browser, then re-enter the browser, the servers should be updated. If you are not seeing any changes, then the most likely explanation is that nothing has changed.
