[quote](personal opinion as user) Using queues is very anti-social. You do not know who else waits. You cannot chat with them. You have no estimation about when next game will start (even very approximate based on history, or on other games happening for that queue). I generally do not use a queue because of the above.[/quote]

* do the things I talked in my earlier post (i.e. make the changes that let you queue up to MM in parallel and not be sad). The core change (leave queue when playing in a room, get back when game ends) doesn't require infra changes

* have a mapping between MM queues and chat channels. This can also be done lobbyside (just hardcode that the channel for 1v1 wide is #mm_1v1_wide or whatever).

* make it possible to click the MM button to join that chat channel, and have the UI pretend it's not a chat channel but a room. Like this:

This
way
you
can
do
all
the
usual
room
stuff
like
talking
to
people
before
(
and
after)
a
game,
see
who
the
other
guys
are
gonna
be
etc
while
it
still
being
MM.
The
MM
chatroom
fills
a
very
similar
role
to
the
magic
waiting
rooms
in
the
posts
above
but
has
the
various
advantages
of
MM.

It

even

having
