Google App Engine Error

Realm of the Mad God (ROTMG) uses Google App Engine along with many other sites in the cloud. Occasionally that infinite loading screen that plagues the game is followed by this odd message.

It seems to be an error about telling you there was an error and the error message did not load properly. I am not a coder so I am not sure how all this works but I think it can be fixed. Maybe add a default error message to this type.

After that the server tries to connect and gives a countdown of how many times you failed to connect.

Account in use (584 seconds until timeout) 

Connection failed! Retrying...

According to my estimate since Build 12.0 you get 600 seconds (10 minutes) before timeout. Once timeout happens you get reset and automatically get in. Luckily you do not die instantly anymore while waiting to load.

As long as you are patient most of the time you can get in about 120 seconds (2 minutes) or less. In the past you were given less time and that often resulted in instant death while your character was sitting vulnerable in the game and you could not move it.
