Except that a lot of games would be deleted at this point.  Most of them new.

It's like having a line of people waiting for food and you don't have enough food.  Telling someone to go to the back of the line is not a just thing to do.  Usually, you have everyone wait until there is enough food and serve those who have been waiting the longest.  An alternative is to limit the number of people in line.

So, what do you think about disabling the button automatically if the number of open games is more than say, 20?  There used to be a limit on the email creation, too, and we could re-implement that so that the number stays more manageable.  Thoughts, anyone?

Can I suggest an alternate approach with something like open games with no activity for ... days will be deleted? It could even send the create details to the game master for easy recreation if it was deleted in error.

Currently, we have 50 games still open with an average wait time of 29 weeks.  It used to be three days with no more than 20 open games.  Most of this influx is due to the web-enabled game creation I implemented last year.  As a result of this plethora of open games, I have disabled the create game button until further notice.
