You know after some thinking the 0 K.O would be fine but only if the DC's don't count..I am not really sure whats up with the servers but I randomly disconnected four times yesterday..once in a floor 20+ solo run...since you are directly kicked out of the palace it will count as a k.o..which means that if you get kicked from the game on floor 99 in a solo run you will have a nice little k.o in your save data and have to start again. Its already annoying if you die to monsters but having to start again from 51 because of the server or maybe your own connection (so out of your hand) makes this truly frustrating...

Exactly, this is the thing that bothers me the most, the single d/c just kills your run, regardless of duration or type. the servers won't save your instance so you are straight up boned if anything causes an interruption. If this didn't happen, it would make solo more fun. But having to be afraid that if something causes a hiccup you lose everything just kills the fun to be had playing solo. When it comes to 100+ you pretty much need every minute anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to just at least let the person attempt to salvage a run they d/c from. You might lose 5 mins from a d/c or less but it's possible to rush and complete a run in that time. It just seems a bit misguided to end a run automatically from a d/c.

Pft, geez and if anyone is doing POTD now, don't. This should really be on the news feed, but not so much as a warning in-game.

Not sure if this has caused my connection to be unstable just around an hour ago but.

I'd definitely hold off progressing in POTD on a 0 KO run if you are on an NA data canter.
