That sounds like a ProSnooper bug.

i have been using the same build/ver of snoop for as long as i can remember. i noticed it started happening after this thread resolved

http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=38824

at first the games stayed in the hosted box for too long. now when i host hey dont appear. i have to re-open the room. just an observation. i dont know who to inform or where to do so. its a minor inconvenience

If it broke ProSnooper but not W:A, it's a prosnooper bug. Worms Armageddon is in this case the standard for the protocol.

If you have no idea what I'm on about, think about it as a website. If a website conforms precisely to the W3C standards, but doesn't work in Internet Explorer, that's a bug of Internet Explorer, not a bug of W3C or of the website itself. If the website owner doesn't care about it being cross-browser, he has no obligation to fix it since there is absolutely nothing wrong.

My prosnooper was periodically failing to add hosted games to the list before the alterations in that thread you linked happened. Now it just marks them as full so no-one can join, but that's another problem, hehe.

Some don't deal with these kind of problems because they use snoopers for chat and monitoring and host or join games with WA.exe >.>

Offtopic, but why can people use highlight in sigs now? It's rather irritating. URL tags were fine, but highlight is too far.
