Disconnection Policy:

Except as otherwise expressly stated in writing by PartyGammon.net, the following Terms and Conditions set forth the rules and procedures that govern all players' rights in the event of disconnection and game cancellation.

Disconnect Protection is a tool implemented to protect players in the event that their Internet connection is inadvertently lost while they are involved in a match. If a player is disconnected, that player will be allowed to continue the game (provided he or she has Disconnect Protection available).

Disconnect Protection is in no way intended to be used for any purpose other than a genuine disconnection. Any misuse of this policy by intentionally disconnecting from PartyGammon.net software may result in forfeiture of any monies won, the loss of the Disconnection Protection privilege, or expulsion from the site.

Players must accept the risk of disconnection. Disconnections can and do occur. In the event of a disconnection, please log back on and continue play as quickly as possible. To limit potential disconnection difficulties, please consult with your ISP as to what measures can be initiated to help reduce this risk. At no time will PartyGammon.net assume responsibility for disconnected players, regardless of cause.

PartyGammon.net reserves the right to alter this policy, and render final decisions made on all matters herein, at its sole discretion. Policy changes and relevant decisions will be communicated accordingly via PartyGammon.net via electronic and/or written means.

PartyGammon.net reserves the right to render final decisions on all matters herein at its sole discretion. Decisions will be communicated accordingly via PartyGammon.net using electronic and/or written means.

Live Games Disconnection Policy:

Players are deemed disconnected if they do not act on their roll before both the local timer and global timer expires.

  1. Each player will have three (3) minutes to reconnect and resume the game. If a player does not return to the board within the allocated three (3) minutes, he or she will lose the match.
  2. If a player has been disconnected twice in a match, and he or she has returned to resume the game, a third disconnection will result in the automatic loss of the match.
  3. Frequent disconnections, or abuse of the Disconnection Policy, will lead to a warning, and may result in penalties, such as a ban from playing on the site.
