The loading screen only applies to you and will initialize with or without your opponent, I meant how long you waited for you opponet? If he doesn't show any signs of action after 20 seconds then I doubt he'll come.

As for the Mac user, I can't really tell since I can't test it out, but the cut-out could be related to the screen/resolution.
