Sent invites for 16 games. It's now more than 3 hours after the deadline. What is so complicated about joining a few games in 2 days? Next time I will probably not bother with invites anymore and just forfeit the games....
That's a good idea Rob. For the latest batch we ended up having to invite members of the opposing team (having checked on p1 here to see who we were up against) as it seemed the only way to get them to join. Shouldn't be necessary to have to do that. And nobody can say "I was on holiday" or such, as they shouldn't be joining the games in the first place.

Thanks. It'll probably cause some teams to pull out, but so be it....
Yeah, we wouldn't want that though. Had another think about it yesterday and rather than forfeit the games (which is a bit of an unfair advantage for the team who benefits from the wins) it would be better to deduct penalty points from the teams that are slow.

That would create even more work for me when people don't join in time. And how many points? What would be the "second deadline"?
Honestly, why can't they just click on "Join game"?
At least I know for the next version which teams not to accept anymore....
