Scrapking, Bradanderson vs. Blobspam, Blackdong

Game "ended" in CoH via defender's timer lapsing.  It reported that Scrapking, Bradanderson could not reinforce, and upon our last units exiting the field, the game did not exit on its own, so both of us left game.

After everyone exited game, the game remained open with the only report option being "abandon".  We would prefer this battle be "processed", if possible.

its abandoned... no mortar killing sherman

OK, our game is abandoned, and our explicit problem is over, but there still remains that a game which should have ended & reported, did not, if this is the sort of thing that FL- might care about knowing.  (and I do not pretend to assume that it ought to be important or not)

Not sure how this happened...if one person waits until the game times out, or makes everyone else drop, or you capture all the territory it will end.  Sometimes it gets stuck, I've tried to find the issue and haven't been able to do so yet.

Replay might help.

Due to defender's timer, we (Brad & I) lost our ability to reinforce.  We both still had units on map, and still maintained an MCP advantage (plus there was a badly damaged panther I had hoped to kill), so we remained on map.  After failing to kill the panther, and losing the MCP edge, we both retreated our remaining units offmap.  After ~30 seconds, there was no "game over" message, so Brad & I both exited.  Apparently at least one player (Blobspam) remained in game for several minutes, at which point I directed him to exit as well, thinking we might have to click on "process", and it wasn't available because the game was still "active".  It did not help.  (only offered "abandon")  We did not think a replay was necessary, since honestly the aforementioned description  seemed like all the relevent information.  Next time we will make sure to save it.

I'm not looking for an explanation or a refund   , just passing along information if it helps you.

In that situation, you have already lost.  The game should end in the following situations.

A) Either side has no units left on the map.
B) Winners capture every territory.
C) Timer expires.
