I think other "funky pooliers" will agree with me.

no hope that helps

lol ty rank doctor

just in future refences dont put peoples name in any post you do

ok

dj1273 leaving after 1 game is ok. What I don't like is when you say lets play first to 5 etc and they win a few and leave. Now that's annoying

yes that is 2 thats why i never say it until its like 3-3

this is something that will always be a topic of discussion but will never change, a player has his or her right to leave a game when ever they feel like, docking points would be an injustice to that player.

what if you can only come on for 5 minutes because you need to go out you cant play 2 games
maybe if you make a game you choose how many games you play before they can leave

well could it be possible when making a room, to put a certain amount of games, like first to 3 or something? ste

good idea ste, that could work but how much work would it be for nick to do.

This is a good idea nd one i've been keen on for quite a while.

With the improvements in code being tested on golf then "locking" people in a game should soon be a reality.

As i see it, a simple additional confirmation box sayng "Are you sure you want to join a 5 game series" for example should eliminate all but the densest of users from "accidentally" joining.

i agree with spinner great idea however wouldn't it be easier to make the game name "first to 5" but when the opponent enters the room ask them if it's ok with them to play first to 5 instead of leaving after couple of games.

Yes thats fine, and can work, but the fun of the game is lost when people go 2-0 down then leave. I like to play long sessions and this happens a lot.

Its one of those things that will be great for those who play that style, but wont get in the way of those who dont.

you can leave when you want ive left many of times after 1 game and it's not going to change

sorry about the text martin noted for the future with all the changes on funky theses days would it be so hard create a room with a 3 game minimum,or something along thoses lines
