Post by viktorvektor »

Hello

There is a cap, thought it was 20-25 , sounds like it is 20.....

If enough time has passed and no move has been taken by your oppenent , there is an in game function called "claim game" where you can zapp it and free up a slot. Not sure how many days have to pass, 14 maybe?

The 20 game limit is a system wide max per game. It is intended to stop people spamming the system. We're going to look into ways to deal with this but for now this is the most you can have going.

You can claim a game that has been inactive for 30 days by using the Claim button in game.

30 days is my opinion to much. 15 inactive I understand.


PROPOSED SOLUTION:
- Add option when game created "Max inactive days"

PROPOSED SOLUTION for 20 games limit:
- Add finally multiplayer stats for users. Users what will be active and always end game should be able to get more then 20.
