Wondering about increased players timing out

I've noticed a lot more players going thru the countdown and dropping from games.  I don't have an explanation for it, but it doesn't seem to happen to me.  I usually play running the '/serverproxyonly' switch.  I'm starting to think that i'm less likely to lose connection because i am proxied.

 

Anybody else have a thought on this??

This is due to the game crashing,being forcefully ended, or a loss of network connection to all players. I'm glad you've been spared of the above :)

I guess I wasn't as clear as I thought.  I've had a lot of other people leave, disconnect, desync.  I myself have not lost connection, even tho pards and opponents have counted down and left.  And I have a relatively slow dsl connection.  I do get the 'invalid gamestate' at times.  Usually when winning, and right after an opponent concedes.

I'm just wondering if the proxied connection is more robust than the others.

Ive been getting alot of random unhandled exceptions during game for some reason.  I never got them pre patch =/.
