    "Game host has recently deleted many games. Cannot start new games for a while."

    I have received the above message for the past day when trying to host or join a game. I have indeed recently deleted many games but only because some players here have found a way to join my games without the usual permission granted. How long will this ban last please? Thank you.

    Carny, unfortunately app/phone users can just sit at a table without permission. I type "no thanks" and wait for them to leave. It can be quite annoying but better than the result you get when deleting them all.

    @MapmakerE That is what I do. I am very apologetic about it but they have the right to know. I guess it hangs them up for a while too and they have to listen to a bunch of ads. I censor them before the game times out too. From what I understand Lex generates these games for them so they don't necessarily choose us. Not sure if that is true or not but definitely a glitch that should be fixed for everyone's sake.

    That's probably what I ought to do too! Normally I just delete the game immediately. Haven't received the "deleted too many games" message... yet!

    @MapmakerE Greetings. I usually play via my phone and I am unaware of the permission granted. If I want to join a game that is hosted and waiting for a player, I just click accept and then I am in. Occasionally the person will decline the game (as you did once), but I don't recall getting a "no thanks."
    Wondering what your criteria is for playing/not playing someone.
    Come to think of it, I guess when I play at my computer I get an "accept/decline" option. On the app I think the only criterion is rating. If I set a window, someone outside cannot play, inside, the game starts upon them accepting it.

    @carnybarker To answer your question, this happened to me once. I think it was only for a few hours. Maybe longer, i don't know.

    What criteria do you use to decide whether to accept or decline a player in your game? Does the app only use rating as the main factor for starting a game?
