How do you know if you've crashed while waiting to get into a room?

Does the crash thing come up? I just finished the easy maze and I'm waiting in line to get to the prize room. The queue doesn't seem to be moving as fast as it did when I was waiting to get into the maze. Do the prize room lines move slower? Or did I crash?
 
The number stoped for more then 5 minutes
 
I can't say if the wait at the end is longer than the wait to get in. I haven't been able to make it past the 3rd room of a maze all day.

But I can say that there is no way of knowing if you crashed while you are in queue. Other than if the number hasn't changed for a long time (I go by 20 minutes myself) then you've probably crashed. You won't know for sure until you hit cancel, then you'll get the lost connection message.
 

One thing I will do if I'm not sure and don't want to hit cancel to find out...

In a different window, I log on a character that is on my friends list. As soon as that character is in, pull up the list. If you are online and "not in any room", then you are still in line. If you are offline - sorry you are disconnected. :(
 
Thanks for that tip! I'll have to remember it for next time. I can't believe I waiting, got through the maze, and then crashed while waiting in line for the prize room. What a waste. :(
 
I bug a VMK buddy on AIM who i know is on to look for me to see if I'm still alive and kicking :)

Or do the whole mule check on me thing !
