Suggest limiting new game starts

Postby Strider53 on Mon May 19, 2008 1:49 pm

May I suggest a limit be placed on any player starting up new games. I often see one player start up 12-18 games - all identical - and i have to scroll through the entire list to find games I might be interested in. It is just a little peeve, but I do not see the reasoning behind starting up a dozen or so games at one time. How about a maximum of six at one time until they are filled and under way. Any thoughts?

There currently is a threshold limit of 50 games awaiting players. Most of the time when players create duplicate or identical games...that is just their favorite setting and they want to start them all up at once!

But we've some improvements coming to the "Start A Game/Join A Game" screen in the near future, which may help solve some of these "spamming" problems.

I start 50 games at the same time.
This way I get my favorite settings and It takes 2 or 3 days for them all to fill up.
This way I can play any time of the day cause I always have 4 or 5 on the go.
I play over 100 games at the same time sometimes more.
It's not that hard to scroll through the list or are you in that much of a hurry.

If you use the game finder this shouldn't be a problem as you'd only find games you want and hence no need to scroll but rather just join as many as you like (unless a mega starter has you as a foe ofc, then you might have a problem :D )

If you don't use game finder you still would have to scroll past loads of games even with such a limit. I just don't see what the gain would be.
