Lag lost me a win

[Binkydonny]

I was playing and was in the last 12, 3.5 hearts left, and I got past the creeper, then all of the sudden, LAG, then I was in front of the creeper, it killed me! I think those points should be refunded to me due to this inconvenience. Thank You

Lag problems are very annoying indeed. My team of four lost to one person because it looked as if he were teleporting.

I died so many times of lag, I suggest you should install Optifine. Also, you do not lose points for getting killed by mobs.

This has happened twice to me while I was in a game deciding fight. It was against players, not mobs, and I lost a lot for them. Optifine wasn't helping so I removed it.

Well keep in mind that other people undoubtedly are dying by lag too, so those people are losing the same amount of points your losing, & thereby you score is still in the right proportion to everyone else.

If the screen completely froze, & it wasn't internet lag, try downloading 64bit Java if you have a 64bit machine:

I worked for me immensely!

The points for dying due to lag should not be refunded, first of all, these servers are in BETA, and second, none of the current listings on the leaderboards will be recorded outside of the BETA, so just be patient and when they get reset you might have a better chance
