The game stopped showing up as an active game for me, but apparently TYTN still has the game waiting for me to take my turn.

To add to this, I’ve been getting email alerts that I am out of time for turn-based games of 99, but the website never directs me to them when it is my turn. This doesn’t always happen, but every few games or so that I create/enter for turn-based 99 games, it will. I won’t realize that it’s my turn until it is too late. Of course, the game also cannot be progressed until the person who’s turn it is goes (assuming they ever find out) and if they are out of time, they cannot be skipped (as I reported in a separate but related bug here). A game example that I have of this occurring is #198211756.

Also, I think I have found a common thread among games hitting this bug. I've noticed it is only happening when it is your turn, you have 1 life left, and any card you have available to play will end the game for you (i.e. the count is 99 and all you have is a Jack, a 3, and a 7). It's also consistently been that you would be the first to go out and the other 2 players (again these are Arena games I'm playing) are waiting on your turn and could continue playing.
In this scenario, for the player whose turn it is:
- is not alerted to the fact that it is their turn in a turn-based game (especially Arena as that's all I've been playing) by the website. The only alert you could get would be if you have email alerts set to inform you that you are running out of time (I don't have alerts set for when it simply is my turn).
- if that player runs out of time, they are not skippable. The option is presented, but clicking it has no effect and the game is "stuck" unless that player comes back to play their turn...assuming they ever find out it is their turn.
