Ok its a pain waiting around for players to join a large killer room.

Say there is a killer game waiting for 9 people. What if there was a button (available only to the owner) that could start the game even if there wasnt the required number there (as long as more than 3 people were in the room)?

There's one problem with this. Say someone wants to do a 6 player game. They join your game, which says 6 players, and it gets started with only 3. They wouldnt be very happy.

The only way I can see around this is when you are creating a game there is:

Players: 1, 2, 3 etc.
ANY

This means it can be started with any number of players

Also, if the room creator leaves the room, I think the owner becomes the player who joined it first (? - to be comfirmed).
So, the owner of the room is not always the people we think it is, and there could even be someone being the owner without knowing that he is it.

Anyway, this idea is well interesting, as waiting for many people can really become very boring.

i like the idea of the "Any" option, if you could go over 10 players i think that would be great although it would take hours lol

good idea but some ppl might want to play 10 killa for the extra 11 points than a 9 killa. if the wanted a 9 killa they wud just make a 9 killa game.. the use of any wud be best option as u join not knowing how many players will be in it.
