Changing game name live

So I just though of this.

We feed back players in game their rating and team what's to stop us from turning the rule box into title and feed that back to faf?

would be very useful as you can set the title more in accordance to who joined.

Would be nice. For instance for when you want to change "2v2" to "3v3", or want to remove "re" because the game is not filling up full again, or want to change rating range, etc.

Yes, I'd like that too. In fact I don't think anyone would not like that... maybe that's why nobody answered at first...

I think everyone agrees it would be very nice. However, I think almost no one knows how to start to do this ^^

I know how to do this.

It'll require changes to the server though, so I'll require access to that to perform the necessary changes.

Without that, I'm sure Zep can implement the serverside if I make a patch to the lobby.

There are a few other bugs in the lobby that require fixing too.

oh boy! I also know a guy or two who know Python. Let's get right on it. all we have to do is send it to Zep's Github with the link to this thread and he should greenlight it easy peasy.
