While I understand that we're not paying for this and I genuinely thank the folks who are hosting this service, I am getting rather frustrated that I can't even play an entire game. IrishDruid put it well. I was hoping that certain types of games (newbies player vs. chickens or cai for example) could be hosted on the player's computer or at least take some of the load off springiee by sharing it (much like they do with Mars rovers when the rover can't talk to NASA) but that's not the case today. I think those options would certainly lighten the load on springiee's and make it possible to scale out the implementation better. :-)
