Time Out -A Little Warning Please!?

RE: Time Out -A Little Warning Please!?
So to add to the frustrations:
I've been careful to make sure I play a turn whenever it says 3 days have passed.
Did all that the other night. All good.
~11 hours later: "You Lost" On a game that said "2 days ago" 11 hours ago.

I don't know if that's a display failure or a timing mechanism failure or what.
But it's not cool. (I came pretty close to rage quitting, I confess.) I wasn't even close to over time according to what they told me.

They need to implement user side cron jobs.
Run the main on the opponnent's game. Run a copy on the user being waited for's game (so that you can check for mismatches to prevent hacking; not that this is a major worry, it's just basic due diligence).

Also adjust time to show a countdown that moves to hours by the last or second to last day.

I know there's much to be done, but this woudl make EVERYONE happier.
You think I jest?
People who get annoyed by players taking too long (and don't even know if there IS a time out if they're new) would relish seeing the armageddon clock approach midnight.
I really do think that this is worthwhile functionality.
