Description Jordi Mallach 2008-04-12 10:56:24 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I was playing a really cool glchess game when my mind went idle and I decided to open the About dialog. I saw a big "GNOME Games website" button, and again I idly clicked on it.

OH NO. The game ended as one of the players had "died". My precious game!

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start a game.
2. Open the GNOME Games website from the About dialog.
3. Be annoyed.


Actual results:
Someone dies. Which isn't probably the best description for a chess game. Also, Ephy presented me with a wiki page.

Expected results:
Game continues, while I look around the wiki page.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
