My computer is fairly bad, but it does the job.
I feel like minor bouts of lag cause this to happen


In multiplayer my opponents timer will hit zero. The game recognizes my turn, and immediately switches back to the enemy.

The game applies the opponent's time-out to both him and I, skipping my turn, and leading to my demise.

Thanks for any help

Try going to the options [bottom left of main screen] and turning everything down/off, and see if that helps.
