Hello to all on this post,
My first piece of advice would be to make a note of all who have responded on this discussion so far (write their user ID down).
You can then create a game and use the manual invite option to invite them as it looks like none who have written will disconnect. This will give you a few players you know will finish a game.
If I have the time, I accept all game invites and all friend requests. Even if someone disconnects, you still get the XP for winning the game. However, I keep a note of who they are and remove them from my friend lists afterward (if I had added them during the game). I never then accept another game invite from them.
Alternatively, as already said, join a country club.
Hope this has helped.
Kevin
