at one point we forced hands to be auto-redealt when someone bailed and someone else sat down.
As you know, one can't really complete a hand from the middle, with no knowledge of what happened on prior tricks. Yet, we received a number of complaints about this behaviour and decided to roll back the change.
Back to the main topic.
We're looking at the HMFAG ( help me find a game ) logic again. But lets ask this:
Someone clicks HMFAG. Where should he go if he's known to be a table hopper with (say) a 35% completion rate? to a table with other table hoppers? Or should we say 'Sorry, no tables available?'

If someone has a significantly low completion rate, would placing a timer on their next sit-down help discourage the bad behaviour enough? For example, a player with that awful 35% completion rate gets into a bad board and quits the table, hits the HMFAG button, and then, 30 seconds later they are placed at a table. When they get their completion rate back up to an acceptable level (60%?), the delay disappears.
