Heroes of Newerth: 5 Second Countdown Loop Glitch

While playing Banning Pick in the HoN beta, I came across a strange glitch where the 5 second countdown timer would loop indefinitely. I would assume this was a result of an unlikely occurrence of events that we were unfortunate enough to witness.

The orange player disconnected shortly after character picking started, so we then proceeded to pick characters. When every player readies the countdown is started and in order to prevent making everyone wait, when somebody disconnects it does not require their ready to start the countdown. Unfortunately the person who disconnected was the last person in the character selection, so when everyone readied, he still had time on the clock to pick his character when the countdown started. This resulted in the countdown going off while still waiting for him to pick, but the countdown froze the character select timer and just looped forever.

Of course, this is just my theory, I'll leave it to the programmers to figure out for sure what's wrong.
