I was just wondering other than inviting specific players is there any way to prevent certain ranks from joining games you start?
Also how can I get into some games against players of decent skill level?
Yes I have looked through 'join games' and tried to join games with players with good ranks but its usually 'oh look a 8 player game and the first 3 spots are all major I think I'll join' Come back the next day and see the game is active with the rest cooks and cadets. And of course I get cooked out after about 5 rounds and the game is a white wash for someone where the only strategy they employed was avoid the stupid cooks.
I like to play eurasia trench no spoils or some variation thereof. I think small numbers 4 or 5 can be good if the skill level is there but unfortunately I'd say out of the last 20 or so games I have played about 3 of them have not been a whitewash due to cook or inexperienced players.
Thanks for any advice proffered.
