Untimely Malfunction unable to redirect Glasswords ability
I cast Untimely Malfunction to redirect the "left half unlocked" ability of a Room (Glassworks) which my opponent cast and twhich argeted my Fear of Lost Teeth, but Arena did not seem to let me redirect the ability. My Fear of Lost Teeth died, and, confused, I used its death-triggered 1 damage pointlessly on a 4/4 instead of my opponents 1/1 (I thought for a moment Arena would reverse itself and kill the 4/4).

I also had an untimely malfunction snafu where the game locked up when I redirected a counter with it. The stack wouldn't resolve and I lost when my timer ran out.

Did you have another creature it could target? Glassworks specifies that it must target an opponent's creature and although you are changing the target your opponent is still the owner of the room & controller of the ability.
