I'm hoping there isn't going to be a separate thread about this in each of the 1000+ games on BGA.

Well... if they started they would end as soon as the absent player times out...

I think this is a great change, because the previous system clearly had bugs where either you don't get notified on mobile or if you're connected on multiple devices it randomly decides to add you to the game queue. Kudos to BGA admins for coming up with a great solution.

The problem is that on mobile you don't get notified that the table is full, so another player ends up cancelling before you have a chance to confirm.
