Okay i've just come out of a game with three other players; gameaddict and two other people. It was one of my custom maps and what happened was........

Time Rewound!

At the beginning, the very begining my worm on the left hand edge of the map threw a greande and i missed my target or may have even commited suicide and fell to the water, anyway that was odd but then I GOT TO HAVE MY GO AGAIN right after having my go! This time i threw the grenade but missed even worse but def. didn't die this time. Odd.

But it even happened again near the end of the game in exactly the same location, this time my worm definetly died but it just came back to life at the next go. It was now sudden death so it had one health like everyone else (not sure if it had one when it died). But i was the first out of the game for sure and the othe three were left in but it happened that i came back! With me and some spanish dude the only ones left with one apiece, unfortuately he won just but anyway, it WAS weird.

(add: actually it happened both times on the right hand edge of the map)

What you're experiencing there is the network pulling the game back in time to resynchronise to the last agreed state. It can be a bit confusing, but it's better than game over.

it happened again today, the thing is on each occasion i got to have my go go again so it really helped me actually; do the other players see the same as i am seeing? I haven't seen this happen to other players.

They may see it or they may not. It depends on the circumstances.

i just came out of a game which i thought i had won HHG at the end. it then reset to my last turn and i had a bazoka equped but no aiming curser or round time or weapons panal. i could still move about but had to hit him with a bazoka (which he survived) and when it came to his turn the "this sesion is no longer avalible" message came up
