game does not exist

[momotron]

... I'm getting that error every time I try to make a game. If I try again, I get "Game Name Already Exists". So I try to join, but it still gives me "game does not exist".

Does anyone know what's up with useast today..?

You may be 'out of sync', so to speak. Happens from time to time when you get booted out of a game. Just wait it out... Sometimes it takes 5 minutes, sometimes 18+ hours... At least it once did for me.

This happens when
1) The creator of a game gets a "failed to join". The game name is then reserved, but the game is nonexistant/completely inacessible. It's somewhat common in Baal/CS/whatever runs, and the convention is to advance to the next game number.
2) Your bnet connection is "restricted", and you can only see and join a tiny subset of all games (those created by other restricted players?). This is what Greizer mentioned.
