Migrating means that the host disconnected, so one of the other players is being converted to hosting the game.

it was in 1.01 too, it happens when the host leaves and it tries making another player into a host.

it failed quite often in 1.01 (host d/c, some others drop) , but worked a few times (the lag also changes depending on the new host).
