Could it please be possible to have Super-Tables with 100% Karma and Premium users as a setting....
In my last 10 Catan games, in 4 of them one of the players quit with a 'Sorry have to go' when they are doing badly.

100% Karma is not really more restrictive than the 85% karma already implemented. It just means a few more fast games need to be played. Anyone who regularly quits as part of their strategy and takes a karma hit has a method of getting it back.

As for only premium players: This goes against the BGA philosophy of not needing to pay to play. While several games are restricted to premium members to open a table, all games are available to play regardless of premium status. This restriction is a result of negotiations with game publishers, not because BGA wanted to sell more premium memberships.

If it really bothers you, there is always the option to manually create a table and keep kicking players off who do not meet your criteria.

yikes on the karma replenish method.
As for premium only, my suggestion is that it is a choice, not a default.
Also, the problem is, once the game is full, I cant kick anyone from the flash screen and with Catan it happens lightning fast that it fills if you allow average players (if you only allow good players, it doesn't fill mostly)
Is there a way to avoid the game changing from the list to that 'ACCEPT' screen?
Then I can sit an expel perfectly nice people, who just doesn't happen to have a premium membership until I find 3 other paying members with 100% karma...... :roll:
Maybe I should go back to playing KoiKoi :lol:
