Rotating host/song choice

If it makes any difference, I'd still like to see it added. 
Every time I see some troll who won't pass host or becomes afk (which is way more often then I would like) I just think of this and go: "this needs to become a thing sooner then later"!

Necroposting is fine here afaik.
I'd like to see this implemented.
No, peppy is very busy, he doesn't have any time for this shitty game.
oh yes please~
This needs to be implemented: Everyone is always eager to pick their own favorite songs and sharing songs like this is an awesome way of discovering really good beatmaps/songs that people haven't played before.
However if i could just add a few more suggestions.
Lets take the example of a lobby named "4* to 6* host rotation every 2 songs*
Now, the maker of the game (the host) should have an option to turn on song-selection rotation, as per the original idea, but also the option of putting a force-filter on the difficulty of the song being selected, in this case 4stars-6stars only.
Secondly it'd also be nice to choose after how many songs the song chooser is changed, in this case every 2 songs, so that the option isn't limited to just 1 song each.
Thirdly, it'd be nice to add a feature where players can opt-out of being part of the song-selection rotation, for example, those people who don't have many maps or for whatever reason don't wish to pick a song for the lobby.
Fourthly, and probably most importantly, add some sort of anti-AFK timer, like the song-selecter has 120 seconds to pick a song or else the song-selection goes to the next person.
Some other ideas to play with:
Does the host get to force-start the game, or does the song-selecter get to force start the game?
Should there be a feature added where lobby joiners can vote-kick an afk host or song-selecter?
Should there be a feature to forcefully decline a song, for example, if someone picks Freedom Dive 4D and no one feels like playing such a long song, users can "vote" to forego the song forcing another song to be selected instead (this is probably communicable through chat, but sometimes people just don't listen, cuz they're D bags)
Should there be a feature for the host or song selector to put a timer on when to start? For example, make it so that the game force-starts in "30 seconds" or whatever defined time and announce the timer to the whole lobby. Or with this timer active, if 100% of players in the lobby ready-up, it will automatically start the game.
In either case, some sort of this implementation NEEDS to be done, it's just extremely useful due to how public multiplayer games always tend to be played.

I suppose a "kick host" button would help remove afk players.
yes, please!! i'm sick of troll hosts just putting a 8* map in a newbie room, forcing everyone to leave or just wait for the other turn.Rainial wrote:

I would really love this, making host rotation an actual option and at the very least adding stuffs like Anti-AFK measures and star range limiter would make the game much more fun coming from someone who just spends all his time in host rotation rooms and keeps seeing rooms dying because of that one guy who gets afk or that one guy who just chooses 8* maps on a 4-5 room.
There could also be an option to vote-kick instead of the host getting full power, so when the host keeps gets passed no troll will be able to just kick everyone out. But then again, I rarely see trolls that does that.

Vote kicking can result in bullying,ultimately.
Something like when you queue with 3 other people with CSGO, and at the last round you kick the guy who didnt queue with u/is soloqueue. Unfair right?

I think it would be better if we'll add the concept of 'original host', 'host' and 'player'... The 'original host' has the biggest/super power over the multiplayer room... If in-case bullying happens, the 'original host' can get back the host privileges (anytime)... Also it would be better if the 'original host' can select the players who can have the chance to be a 'host' or just a 'player'...
But what if the 'original host' is already out of the room/offline? Then the 'original host' privileges will be transferred to the next in line 'host'/s...
Also,.. this is a bump!!
I like this idea! Hahaha!

It will always be an issue untill someone do something.SakuraKaminari wrote:

(Would be nice if there was a rotate option when you host the room so someone cant toggle it off later on, and to solve the AFK problem just toss the host if someone didnt pick a map for 2 minutes). Im sure there are plenty of ways to solve the same problem.
Isn't there already commands to do that?
!mp host to choose host incase things went mad
!mp lock to lock slots so no stealing spots

I still need it, every day I play this game I have to think about that ...
