No longer in effect as of 090813.
As was discussed on the MFM board, there has been some difficulty getting games to start of late and so measures had to be taken to make sure a good number of SFM games is going on at all times. A hard restriction on the player limit (down from 13 to 10) was deemed undesirable by some, so I've decided to apply a "soft" restriction instead.
For the moment, we're trying to ensure that no more than 2 games for 11-13 players are approved or ongoing at the same time. There may be some overlap between these games, but they are generally steered clear from being in the starting phase simultaneously.
This means that setups for that number of players will take longer before they're looked at and enter the approval process. Games for 10 players or less will go into the system relatively quickly depending on supply and demand.
Hopefully this will encourage hosts to come up with more ideas for smaller setups so we'll still have a good variety of ongoing games out there.
If the situation changes (i.e. increased interest/more active players), these policy changes will be lifted.
Thanks for understanding.
