  Hello, It would be nice if there would be something like a ready button for each player that joins in the mp stroke game.  So creator of the game could not hit tee off juts that easy..

  Coz it sucks when I join second to the room and creator hits tee off with just 2 of us..

   

  well that's just my thought. ty

  No thank you. You'd only get idiots abusing it. I think there are enough delays already.

  how could you abuse it ???? I don't understand?

  If somebody isn't ready or won't hit ready, the creator of the game can easilly send him to lobby like it is now..

  Wrong, I'm afraid if they added that feature that most MP games would just end up being cancelled.

  My experience from other MP game sites is that it works just fine..

  I'll explain what I meant. If I initiate a game and wait ages for opponents, then 2 appear so I decide to go with just 3 of us. I wouldn't be happy if one of them wouldn't let me because they want to play in a 4. The person that starts the game must be in charge.

  so I don't bother with suggestions anymore,
  let them do whatever they want...

  So then you ask politely in the chat for everyone to ready up, and if one doesn't, you kick him and get someone else. What's wrong with that? IMO players here are too impatient to start games anyway. I'd play more foursomes if people would just wait. What's a couple of minutes for a game that may last a half-hour or more?

  Of course, it would be nice too to have a LOBBY where people could chat and see games waiting for players, and if the creator of a game could specify how many players s/he wants, and that info should be available to people in the lobby.
