Infinite Queue Bug [Client Bug]

So every once and a while I feel as if my queue is taking a bit longer than usual and i will usually re-queue after about 5 minutes. However Tonight I decided to wait it out and played back to back Town of Salem matches. When I looked back at my league, a wonderful occurrence happened. I had been in queue for over 40 minutes.View Pic Here After taking my time to investigate exactly what was going on, I believe i finally figured it out. How to recreate the infinite queue bug;

  1. Join any queue (I was in Draft Normals alone)
  2. Allow your garbage internet to cut out for a few seconds then resume (A quick flicker that's a few second that you don't notice will do!)
  3. Once you have disconnected from the the server for a few seconds, your work is done!
  4. Congratulations!!! You have successfully entered a never ending queue! Isn't it great? Now while this isn't a game changing bug in the slightest, I believe it is something to look into, as I think when you DC, the server removes you from the queue list, but your client doesn't quite get the message. Metaphor of whats happening; It's like rejecting a crazy chick. Your servers are sending a one time message that she isn't your type, and she just keeps on sitting in the same queue, with nowhere to go. For those of the grill gender, Imagine the friendzone, the unescapable pit that so many a men have been pushed into. They may think they are still in queue to be with you, and their timer of waiting continues, but you know he is already deep, deep down inside of its fiery depths. Hope this helps resolve the queue problem and also another thing, after an hour in queue, the timer resets itself.
