    A while back the 3 game rule was implemented so more
    games could be played on the Scrabble ladder due to
    lack of players. But many have taken that to mean
    that they can go in and play the 3 games in a row
    meanwhile others are waiting to play them. This is
    especially unfair when it is the top 2 are taking
    well over an hour to play these 3 games. I have seen
    this happen repeatedly and would like to suggest that
    all players play 1 game at a time then go into the
    lobby to see if there are others waiting to play them
    before starting another game with the same person so
    that more games can be played by more players.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Dear HoneyB310,

    The rule would need to be put in The Voting Booth and voted in by the ladder members. If you think this is a real issue with many players, we can do that. Why don't you feel the others out and let me know if there is interest.

    Thank you,

    While I don't mind a 2nd game when the first has gone quickly I don't play a third because of this. Now I would like to see how the rest of you feel about it and should we put it to a vote?

      I totally agree with HoneyB310... let's put it to a vote! I also have seen this occur many times.I may be guilty of doing this myself.. but I do agree it is not fair to the others.
