[quote]Well you could change the autohost to "no-elo" but most of the players are in a non-autohost lobby and you don't go to the autohost to wait for players while there are several players in the non-autohost lobby - so you can wait yourself to death...[/quote]

This has already been done, and since then there has been a definite shift towards seeding non-autohost lobbies. We are aware that making FFA truly no-elo will require more than modifying the autohost.

I think that abuses of the system like throwing away casual elo to other players in 1v1 or FFA games is a problem, and in the past it's been a problem addressed by moderator action.

I do not think it is obvious that, [b]outside of deliberate abuse cases[/b], 1v1 and FFA elo being linked to the rating used to balance casual teams games is a problem.

I am coming around to the opinion that the best solution to people abusing FFA to manipulate rating is to make FFA always no-elo. (Or stick it in its own rating category, but nobody has mana for that.) I am not as convinced that forcing custom room 1v1 to be no-elo is a better solution than moderator action in the rare cases that it is significantly abused.

In
theory,
I
believe
it
is
not
too
difficult.
In
practice,
I
am
not
sure
what
is
going
on
with
making
server
updates
at
the
moment.

1v1 games should not alter team balance
