Strange visible spectator glitch.

[Golden Warrior]

Ok, allow me to explain my problem in detail.

Just about an hour ago I was playing SG with my friend and when the game started, I was on the same pedestal as another player. I thought it was strange and when the game started, I was a spectator. But, I can't fly and people can still see me. I've gone through three rounds of people freaking out when I'm spectating, calling me a hacker, and one guy calling me Jesus.

I just want to play some normal SG, I've tried re-logging in and restarting Minecraft to no avail... Anyone know how to fix this? (I looked it up, unable to find an answer.)

Also, I apologize if this is the wrong forum, but I just really need this problem answered.

This is the right place for such a question. This is a MCSG glitch where there is is one more person than there should be (25 people on a 24 person server). This can occur if a donor joins at the last second and the game didn't have time to kick someone, so there is not room for the 25th player, you. It made you a spectator, while retaining viability for the pre-game. This glitch occurs rarely, so if you play another game, it probably shouldn't reoccur. But if this happens in every game you play in (even on a server which isn't full) then you should contact a developer to get that fixed.

Thanks for the quick reply. It seems to have fixed, but it took a very long time to do so. I'm not sure why this happened at all... Again, thanks.
