Make "Sequential" default option instead of "

* Suggestion Idea: Make "Sequential" default option instead of "Freestyle" when creating new games. Also, maybe make "Unlimited" the default since it seems like it is the most popular option.

* Specifics: When you create a game, I think it would make sense that the default options are the ones you're most likely going to want to use, no? Why on earth have "Freestyle" the default option on game creation? I mean, who uses that option anyway? It's really quite uncommon. Not to mention really lame (sorry, just inserting my opinion). Sequential is what most people play and so that's what should be the default option.

* Why it is needed: A guy just recently created a tournament and accidentally made all the games freestyle. Oops. He also made all the forts chained when he intended to do them unlimited. Double oops. I have made games on occasion like this. I also just hate having to click on an extra, unnecessary option when I am creating a game. It should be obvious that freestyle is not what I want by default.

Freestyle is very popular...

On the Game Finder screen, searching for Freestyle brings up 4002 pages of games. Sequential brings up 8570. Freestyle accounts for a bit less than 1/3 of all games played. It may not be as popular as Sequential, but it's not popular enough to justify changing the system. All game-creation options are listed in order, aside from the classic map in the map selection and the gameplay variety itself. Changing ti now would just add more confusion.

My advice to people who create the wrong game: slow down a bit and double check before you click Create. It's much easier for you to double check then i is for Lack to go in, change the code, and confuse a lot more people.

Yeah i think it would be a good idea to set Sequential and Unlimited as the default when creating games because it would be quicker and also cut out many mistakes.

I'm used to the other way now, plus freestyle's more fun for me.
