iPad fails to load room code/name fields without clearing cache/hard reloading #144

Closed mattwbenson closed 8 years ago

After the iPad connects to a session, anytime it refreshes the page, a "resuming your session" message appears even if the session has ended. This makes it impossible for the iPad to join a game without clearing the cache first.

QA was missing a new template. Please try to repro again.

I'm still getting this issue on the iPhone 4 and can reliably reproduce--I start a game with two players, one of which is the iphone, and then put both devices down to let the screens time out. Once both screens go dark and the players disconnect, the game ends. If the hub screen is then refreshed, creating a lobby with the old room code, the iPhone will read the "trying to reconnect to session" message.

The above occurs with an iPad as well as long as the iPad is set to automatically screen-off after a certain amount of time

Just to provide context, when the player is disconnected like this, I now clear their local session and so this does not occur.
