Some games never asked confirmation, others always, and the rest only if there is a game in progress... Now, as I see it, the idea with the exit confirmation dialog is that the user has the last chance to avoid losing his work or data, which in this case means his best game of tetris ever. But if there is no data to be lost, is there any reason to ask for confirmation? If not, should the guidelines recommend against such confirmations? -- Tommi Komulainen Tommi Komulainen iki fi GPG 1024D/68388EE6 6FD6 DD79 EB38 BF6F 3533 09C0 04A8 9871 6838 8EE6
