"Option to make private game go public"
When setting up public games where you're on a team, how often does your teammate not get in fast enough and you're stuck with a player that you didn't intend to play with?
Happened to me a lot.
So, it would be beneficial to set the game up as a private game, and then make it public so you can avoid this problem.
If it's been noted, then sorry.
