Host should be able to reject joiners in multi-player games.

@algor totally agree. I don't have "enemies," but if I did could just censor. I cannot censor people who've never tried partners and who either won't or don't listen to the host explain the play.

We’ve launched this feature today. Do share your feedback.

@lexulous Just saw this after I sent you email. The idea is great but everyone is requesting UK games. Have to be 20 requests in row UK and just got 3 more.

@lexulous Just learned tho says UK reverts to my settings so it is ok and great

@betterlate1-0 But that was then and an hour ago was an hour ago. Went from that to I could not accept invites. It was as if every accept key was frozen, suddenly I got a game ,played it and last turn there was no way for me to take a move and end the game. 3 more frozen invites, 1 said i was no played (we play regularly) and then 2 more frozen invites

Some players join immediately without going through the reject/accept step. I suspect they are coming in via the mobile AP. No matter what application or website the player is using, they should still need the host to accept them.

@algor Yes... there are a few players who are able to join my game without me accepting it... it seems to be the same people. The game just starts and I have no idea if I'm not paying attention. The return of this feature is awesome, but it's not fully functioning yet. There is definitely some glitch where some users are able to jump right in.

@algor seems like number of players who just come to game without invite or asking for invite has been iincreasing over the last few days

It is a well known corollary to Murphy's Law that a software bug becomes more frequent over time.

@scantron Scan, I think Algor is on to something. I think it's app users. More using that way now maybe?

@mapmakere perhaps

@lexulous Yes, I confirmed with a player who was able to just jump right into my game without me getting a request to accept... this player plays via the app and not the web version. So this glitch does appear that app users can jump right into games, and the game starts without a game accept request being sent to the game host.

@scantron I confirmed the same way last night. GMTA.
