easy kick on arana

[myh98]

Playing turn-by-turn in tichu is really restrictive and time-consuming. I don't understand why it wouldn't be possible to validate the start of the game (as in normal mode) while keeping intact the advantages of the arena, i.e. random teams with players unknown before the start of the game.

Because match-making is blind to preserve randomness/fairness, if one could simply cancel when they saw who the others players are, then it's not totally random and it'd likely make it even harder to get arena games to happen. If you click, be available.

Sure, so keep the opponents anonymous for the handshake. Solves all problems

I'm sure people would find workarounds. Like check if the player(s) you want to avoid are offline or playing a real-time game before clicking accept.

That‘s possible already anyway. With an extra tab, you even can see who is in the queue with you.
