@bonhi This is also regarding the Host Table. Many times when I host, I'm suddenly in a game with a player that did not request a game with me nor did I invite that player. It is frustrating because the player's rating is usually so low that the game wouldn't be recorded. I usually wait out the 3 min. timer and go back in the lobby (learned the hard way about resigning from a game) but of course there is always the jerk that does the very same thing again, thinking it is so hilarious to waste my time. Anyway, what is the secret passageway they come through where they can bypass the formalities of requesting a game and being accepted by the host? (It is usually the same 6-8 players.)

@hypersonics Why do you think first turn is such an advantage? To me it's just the opposite, which is why I host 90% of the time. You must not have a problem with scoring a bingo on the first turn and your opponent disappearing. But I do and other players do as well. Let's just leave the rules for turns the way they are.

@dan that happens to me a lot - usually a player with a super low rating so I delete the game. Little did I know deleting games is a big no-no (whether you have a good reason or not). Now I'm penalized and cannot host games.
