Game Finder Delay

[Knight2254]

* Suggestion Idea:My suggestion is to delay games posting to the game finder until 5 minutes after they are created.

* Specifics: The goal of this is to allow time to message your teammates the game number before other people join up.

* Why it is needed: I have had it happen many times when I am trying to create a triple or quad game (heck even doubles), that by the time I message my partner about the game somebody has already joined it and we can no longer play together.

there are privileges to being a member: like password protected games. :D

But then it's not a public game and people don't want to play only private games with opponents they pick.... aka it's also protecting from opponents joining the game

That would be real nice for freestyle games if the delay also started after the game was full. The last person to join always gets the advantage.

Implement instantly!

As an alternative, it this is too hard to implement, you could password protect a certain number of the spots or something to that affect.

I also agree with the comment above about a delay in freestyle.

Password Protecting...is a Premium Feature. Most likely there will be an option in the future to convert a Private Game to Public (So you can get team mates in the game), and also similarly with Speed Game to Casual. (Perhaps with other options, we'll see).
