Fixed code with the lobby software, which should reduce the occurance of this error. The lobby code before would just attempt a connection, and if successful assume the server was working. However, sometimes the server would be unresponsive even though it was allowing connections. The lobby code now makes sure the server is working before assuming the connection is successful, if it fails, then it will attempt to connect to the next available meta-server.

Additionally, since the lobby code always connects to the meta-server at port 9000... if this is the best server, then it no longer disconnects and reconnects to the same server.
