Re: Alternate Shot game set up suggestion

  Would like to see the time allotted to set up an alt shot game increased a bit.

  I was setting up a alt shot game this morning, 1st player on my friend list, tried random, guys would come in and then decline, guys come in and decline,  tried a friend of my friend, but they were busy by the time I sent an invite, tried random again. Finally got 4 players and game was canceled because of inactivity for 5 minutes.

  You see the point?  It takes sometimes longer than 5 minutes to set up the game and we are really trying hard to get players to accept. 

  A little longer set up time please.

  Thanks.

  Hello - my name is Yancy

  I had a great time with the new Alt shot game today.

  Now, I want to let you know upfront that I am just a common man but if there was a way to 'chat' with just your partner it would help with the strategies and whatnots.

  If you are just chatting with your partner you could give tips in private or just talk about "how long this foo takes to hit" or "hes gonna be short here" or even "can you believe his/her's avatar outfit?"

  Not that I would say that about the kind common folk I played with today and such.

  Regards, Yancy

  This is really, really, getting frustrating setting up an alt shot match.  I just spent more than 10 minutes  with AtlantaCoaster as host as he got timed out TWICE after he had just got 4 players ready to go and was setting up the teams.  We gave up.

  I had the same experiencables this AM.

  Twice lined up 4 players - only to have the TEE OFF button go faded on me and unclickables. Its great fun when it works..........

  Embarassing to a common man trying to host a game.

  I found I had to enexpectedly and unavoidably leave an alternate shots game today, but found out this could not be done without killing the game for the 3 other players. 

  Can it not be set up so that in the event of disconnections for whatever reason, the three remaining can carry on regardless, with 1 player playing all shots for that team?
