System Error: Set Cancellation is not supposed to be Resignation

I just had this happen when I was kind to someone who was to foolish to know what game they picked from an open invitation.

This is completely my fault, and could only happen in the new Java-less turn-based code. This is fixed now and I reinstated your games so you can properly cancel the set.

The cancellation button in the new Java-less code works now, I promise. My apologies for the inconvenience.

Thank you. I think after this one I'll try it again and in future just defeat all those foolish enough to not read what game they are accepting.

Fix worked. Thank you for your swiftness in this matter.

You're welcome.

You frequently post open invitations (which I think is awesome), so this will inevitably happen again in the future as new players keep coming in. It's up to you what to do (force a resign or accept a canceled set), but I think your kindness will be greatly appreciated

The problems I've got what that are twofold:

1. People don't take the time to RTFM or its equivalent.

2. Kindness is all too oft mistaken for weakness.

I'm not sure I agree with both, but in defense of the newbies (again), I can definitely imagine them being super excited about starting to play here and skipping a step or 2.

We make mistakes, we learn, we improve, that's what the game and life have in common. We get to repeat that cycle over and over again here, and I'm a proponent of the same in life

I think I'm just sick of having to cater to other peoples' mistakes. They can learn from them.
