'USEast 3v3' or 'USWest 3v3' custom games

from Demigod Forums

I think people should stop putting USEast, Mid, or USWest in the title of custom games.  It will limit the people joining and takes longer for your game to fill up.

In fact, I stop putting the word USA at all and just host my games '4v4'.  I don't mind playing with anyone in the world as long as the ping is under 250.  I've been playing with people from Europe everyday and connection is just fine.

I join any game with US in the title.  It's just signifying where they're hosting from, not saying who can join.

Anyone joining any game hosted in the US will have good ping.

I assume you mean anyone living in the US? :p

What annoys me is i'm from USEast.   So I join a USWest game and I'm the only one who has a 150ping.  So the host kicks me out.

a lot of people don't join games without a location, including myself. The random "4v4" games turn into 5 min lagfest games no thx

I wouldn't mind joining USA games if most Americans wouldn't complain about my 200ms ping to USEast and tell me that I'm either from: a ) The Moon, b ) Antarctica or c ) Russia

I usually don't join without a location, and always put "US" in games I host. The location just indicates where it's hosted from, not who can join. If their ping is under 200, I let them stay. It simply cuts down on the trial and errors you have to go through while picking a custom game. I hate joining a "4v4" then realize they're hosting from Europe and I have a 250 ping, have to exit out, better luck next time.

I am US West but I join East games (and sometimes CA games too), but usually not EU games.

So, to OP: with all due respect..no. |-)
