Quick question

[Arcos]

It's been a while since I've been on this site...is there now some block on newbies and team (doubles/triples) games? and if so, how long does it last and is there any way around it?

[gozak]

i believe so (prob to stop deadbeaters from joining teamgames)

the only way i know out is to play more than 5 games (and complete them)

The block is imperfect however. One of my friends that joined got into a team game with me by simply starting one with the same settings as the existing one, when that little things pops up, it allowed him to join the existing game.

But other than that and a few other loopholes, Yes, new recruits are not allowed to join team games, but they can start them.
