Someone said they submitted a bug for this game but I don't see it. It just gave a server error for whoever validated 3rd (we tried switching the order). All 3 of my team tried to validate last but the server got hung up on the last confirm for the code. We literally could not continue.• Which browser are you using?

F5 did not solve the problem.
This is not the first time I've heard of or seen this problem.
I do not have a screenshot, but if you read the last part of the table chat you will see everyone is in agreement that the bug is happening.
Same bug round 8
One can validate, but not both
PLEASE FIX THIS BUG IT MAKES THE GAME UNPLAYABLE.
This seems to have been going on for months, and a supposed fix has even been submitted, although the resolution for bug #96188 doesn't explain what the problem was or what the fix entailed.
The problem, however, persists.
Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS4 16/10 23:27:05)
The bug happened again. White team could not validate their tiebreak guesses. "Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS4 16/10 23:27:05) "
Hopefully this helps debug the original problem, which always seems to happen in round 8!
Unexpected error: BGA gameserver 4 do not respond (method: getPlayersOverTime) (timeout: cluster)(reference: VO 22/10 05:51:23)
We had to abandon to get out of the game. :(
boardgamearena.com/bug?id=103836
It was the same in both live mode and turn-based:
Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS10 25/11 06:56:22)
This is VERY FRUSTRATING, playing a game for over an hour and then being unable to complete it. This is a blocking error, please fix.
boardgamearena.com/table?table=444134777
boardgamearena.com/table?table=440955143
boardgamearena.com/table?table=438821791
The system seems to treat it as if the game has already ended and therefore validation can't happen since the game is over. Team chats all appear in the table chat but the final turn of one team hasn't actually been completed since the last to click can't validate.
Final player gets an error message:
Server syntax error: Sorry, an unexpected error has occurred...Sorry, we didn't manage to process your request fast enough. Please retry. If the problem persists, please report a bug. (reference: GS8 28/11 03:52:33)
Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS5 13/11 06:21:43)
When we put the *wrong* answer in (2 3 1), we got the permanent server error bug. After talking to the other team, we learned the correct answer (2 4 1), and then we did *not* get the server error, it took us through to the tiebreaker.
At the tiebreaker though, we again got the server error: "Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS8 30/11 07:54:24) "
We tried to change the tiebreaker words, and one team could, but the other team couldn't.
This is a BIG BIG BUG, happens frequently, I hope you can fix!

8th round that ends in tie and goes to guessing keywords. Last team to click validate cannot. Game must be abandoned.

We tried validating in different orders, but it was always the last person who would get the error.
Again, this is SUPER frustrating, to get in the final round after 1-2 hours of play.
PLEASE FIX THIS.
This is the table pamsamp refers to above. On the 8th round, the last person to click validate gets an error message and cannot validate, which forces the table to mutually abandon or expel the person who cannot validate after their time expires.
I didn't realize it was an 8th round issues. I just saw the greyed out validate button and then i refreshed.
Eighth round ended in tie going to the word guesses for breaker. Second team to finalize and validate got an error message.
Unexpected error: Error while processing database request (reference: GS11 22/02 00:16:36)
Game had to be collectively abandoned.
Eighth round, last of six players to validate couldn't validate. No option but to abandon the game. Error msg:
Sorry, we didn't manage to process your request fast enough. Please retry. If the problem persists, please report a bug. (reference: GS11 23/02 02:57:26
Last player could not validate in round 8 of last turn of game.
Refreshing did not held

It would be helpful if future bug-reporters could make a note of the game state at the time of the crash. How many white/black tokens, and was the game about to end upon validation? In my most recent report:
Team Black had one black token, and two white tokens.
Team White was about to earn one white token.
Since Team Black had the two white tokens, the game would have ended when Team White validated.
boardgamearena.com/table?table=485039261
boardgamearena.com/table?table=485062776
boardgamearena.com/table?table=486063770
Tokens were WWB (black team) against one white token (white team). The validation would have ended the game.
So, so frustrating.....
i was the last to validate. someone cancelled their validation, i was able to validate. then they were not able to do it.

This time the bug happened in round 7: The last person to validate on Black team get an error when they try.
