I have one game in progress and 13 free game slots. I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to have a total of 15 right? I checked the players screen but I have no pending challenges and nobody who hasn't left a game. Perhaps a player I had a game with deleted their account?

I can't find it right now, but someone asked the same question once before. Also, it occurred to me that I presently only have one active game, and sure enough, the player list indicates that I have 13 available. Seems to be a problem in how the server counts the games.

Maybe you will see one such player if you turn on "Show dead users in players list" @ settings.

That fixed the problem, thanks.

Here is the formulae how to count free slots:

15 - ( #games + #outgoing challenges )

So not only games are taking slots, but also outgoing challenges.

We had even more restrictive system before - also incoming challenges were occuping free slots. But that proved to be too restrictive.

So, when you cannot accept any challenges becuase you lack free slots, try to cancel some outgoing challenges. Make use of new functionality provided in the challenges section - you can see all outgoing challenges there even for dead players (that aren't normally visible in the players list).
