Folks! I'm going to implement a mechanism that will delete multiplayer fight requests that were not picked up by anyone after a certain period of time. Based on your experience, how much time is a good amount to delete the fights? Let's say you or someone else posted a fight, and no one is interested in it. How much time is enough to decide it's time to delete it?

Honestly, the system just needs to be more descriptive. Nothing like going into a fight against someone spamming the same spank move over and over again, or has 8 copies of some lame and gross foot smother repeated. Boooorrrrring. I stopped using multiplayer when all the fights got ultra-specifically weird. But if people knew what they were getting into, it wouldn't be as big of a problem.

I believe that the problem goes deeper than it might look at the first sight. Spamming one move is a legitimate strategy and one can find it boring while the other will enjoy it a lot. At the same time MP is a competitive mode and giving a disclosure of what exactly you will doing in this match will give the opponent an unfair advantage. It’s also can be done only on the fight request side, while anyone can pick up the fight totally unexpected. The issue can’t be solved with “more descriptive” approach 🌚

my personal vote is for 72 hours, after 3 days if you didn't get picked you are probably not going to be, but can live with 48 hours as well
