I noticed something annoying about turn based games with the waiting screen where the games aren't actually starting. I posted a bug here, but it's not really getting noticed (probably partially since it's mislabeled as a Backgammon bug and partially because it's hard to notice unless you're looking for it).

The issue seems to be if the person who initiates the table does not wait until the waiting screen finishes before moving to another table (like most turn based players would). I noticed this happen in a recent table (https://en.4.boardgamearena.com/takenoko?table=32416812) as well. Shows the game "started" on 8/5, but when I just clicked into the game, the waiting screen appeared for a flash and then the game actually started.

Can we update this in some way to get the game to start without having to specifically go to the table in order to start the game? Maybe adding a message like there is that asks if you actually want to leave the table (like there is when it's your turn)?
