I think host game would do good with a timer. A lot of people (myself included) want to play, host say 5 games, and then get one or two slow games, you're not really paying attention to arcomage, and all of a sudden, you've got 3 games were both players are offline/AFK.
Instead, you start 5 games with a 15-minute timer. Either you get your games and you're playing actively, or you don't get to play, but you're not stuck with a bunch of offline/AFK-games.

Implementable? Thoughts?

You mean the hosted game will automatically be removed after 15 minutes? I can see the charm of that.

Exactly.

perhaps we can also implement a timer, which will say how much time the game has been there waiting for an opponent. I don't think you'll be able to find a game within 15 mins of hosting it so let's make it 30 minutes perhaps?

This feature is far out of borders of current design. It's implementation would be difficult, I think. It's likely that it wouldn't be cost/effective.

Well, if changes come to the system that allows it, I think it'd be really good to have.
