Not having a time limit is a big issue. Currently I have 5 games where the opponents are AWOL.

In the backend we have a variety of node.js servers. We have the following "types" of servers: - Metagame: handles our web api requests - Game: handles all the game logic, on the server. no cli…
Thanks for the in-depth answer!
