Details:

Affects 1.13.0-dev, 1.12 branch,
and 1.11.7 checkout (with localhost 1.11.7 server).

If you make a reloaded game which had observers allowed, the clients will see
the eye-without-X "observer allowed" symbol in the lobby, and a white border
to signify that they can join. But when they try to join they get a message
from the server:

"Attempt to observe a game that doesn't allow observers. (You probably joined
the game shortly after it filled up.)"

This happens both before and after the game has started. In 1.13.0 testing,
the server seems to report that observers are actually not allowed... so it
isn't clear why the clients don't see it this way as well.

If I had to guess I would say it's most likely the bug was introduced due to a
change in the logic of the host since that's where most of the recent code
changes have occurred.
