Probably no one cares but I won't join a game that has 2,3,4,5 listed as the number of players. When I join I want to know exactly how many players there will be. Perhaps maybe I should do that 2,3,4,5 and just start the game as soon as one player joins and then people will see what I'm talking about as they'll probably didn't think they'd be a joining a 2 player game.

I really see the multiple player option better for passworded games where your not sure if you can get all your friends to join or not so if one can't join you could start the game with 1 less perhaps.

However, with public games (no password required) they'll most likely fill up pretty quickly within a day or so.

I agree with mrbass --
I will not join any open game when the number of players is unknown.

I start a lot of open Amun-Re and Tikal games -- and I do them in sets
Amun-Re one each of 3, 4 & 5 player
Tikal one each of 2, 3 & 4 player

All the games fill up fast

I also think the users looking to join a new game like the option
of knowing the exact number of players in the games they join.

Just a side note -- the 3 player Amun-Re games are a big hit.

I don't see a problem. If you don't want to join these games, then don't. Where's the big deal ?

I do the same thing, I try to make it clear of the type of game I am starting. Also what time zone I am in, and that I can make lots of moves during the day. The more info you provide the better you find an opponent to match the type of game you're interested in playing.
