It will no longer select maps when there are more players than what the map allows.
If you have a game that got screwed up from that bug please contact Tech Support via the Help page.
Cheers!

I was just about to post this.
What needs to happen is that for all settings that are not selected, if a player hits randomize, all those settings are not revealed until the game starts.
If a player does not want speed games, then they pick CASUAL and the game is randomized for all other settings but Speed.

so, everything you leave blank is randomized.

it would then be truly random and serve its purpose. By eliminating speed, there are no issues with people getting kicked out due to timing.

I wonder which will prove to be more Random---map selection, or the intensity cubes?

No, it wouldn't serve it's purpose. Notice how it's called "Random Map" and not "Random Game"? Besides, that'd be kinda dumb... I wouldn't like that. I wouldn't, however, mind another little radio button beside each of the options that'll randomize it.

That's what WM is proposing. The ability to make all settings random but also to choose specific settings to randomize. I agree that its a good idea, but as Andy said we should first make sure that the random map feature is popular. I like it at least!
