Is it possible to remove game from the Waiting Room (like "Remove me" from tournament)? I couldn't find such option.

I am not sure, and have not tried it, but it seems that you can start a game with yourself from the waiting room, then resign.

Hehe, play with yourself - It does not work, at least at Golem :)

Tell me what game it is, and I will accept it and resign. That seems simple enough.

Thank you Nick, the game is already in progress. Anyway the problem remains - I wouldn't engage anybody to cancel MY invitation.

Perhaps the solution to this persitant problem would be a time limit for waiting room invitations. I would think a week at the maximum. 2 days would probably be a good limit. That would cover a weekend. A best case could be made for a 1 day time limit. After that, the invitation would just go away.

My first trip here to Golem I went to the waiting room, and started an invitation. Unfortunatly it is the easiest way to learn the site. When I started referring people, I suggested they just join a ratings tourney, and tomorrow something would happen, and it would all become apparent without excessive explanations, or repercussions.
