Thanks for reporting! Is the issue ongoing? Can you tell me which user is getting the error? Do you see any errors in the browser console?

[Kickero]

Yes, here is the error that's returned in the browser console:

Okay, I have a rough idea of the issue, but don't have a permanent fix yet. I believe the issue is the use of double quotes in the game title. I see errors in the function logs where the string "Sal" is somehow getting grabbed and used as JSON. It must be that the double quote is terminating a string or something. I think if you change the game title to single quotes it will allow the player to remove themself. Aside from that, I'll work on making the system more robust so that the title can't break the function, because you really shouldn't have to worry about this.

Well, I was sort of right. But thanks to the help of ChatGPT, I finally tracked down the real issue and #262 should fix it! I'll leave this open until the fix is confirmed (or enough time passes and I don't hear anything, which is okay too)

Closing since some time has passed. Feel free to reopen if the issue is observed again.
