Sometimes my opponent goes away and an AI takes over, but when I let my timer go down my turn skips.. How does he get the AI to take over?

Problems with server, when this happens you will usually play against Ai.
Also no need for double post.
You know, a long time ago being crazy meant something. Nowadays everybody's crazy.

Because flash lags when you switch tab. Your timer is down, but your opponent's is not. Thus the AI take over for you.

Oh my god. I just learned about the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon and Lorem Ipsum today. And then i see your signature. I'm freaking out man.
This is correct. Another way for the AI to take over is if your opponent leaves the game. Most games would make you instantly win, but this one makes the AI take over which i think is a really awesome and clever gameplay mechanic.

The timing could probably be fixed if elements used an extrenal clock that isn't effected by any client sided lag, but i don't think anyone cares enough to warrent this change.
