When someone sits out, a button appears on their nameplate "Start Sit Out Timer". Anyone can press that button, whether they're sitting at the table or not.
If a player presses that button, a timer starts (not set in stone, but let's call it a 10 minute timer). If the player runs out of his sit out time bank, he's unable to come back to that table for some period of time (not set in stone, but let's call it an hour.)
A player may replenish his sit out time bank, regaining x seconds for every y minutes of playing time.
As much flack as I’ve given this site in the past....
This is a great idea and should be implemented right away. Seriously , it makes sense. I am sure everyone would agree.
However what happens when that person clicks sit in, plays a hand... then sits out again?
I guess to answer my own question , it should be a total timer like you said 10 min. It shouldn’t reset when you play a hand, but over time should build its time bank back up.
That way you go to get a snack or bathroom people aren’t timing you out for 3-4 min and you get auto kicked in 3 hours bc you took 3 bathroom breaks.
Every hour you play consistently, you gain 3 min back in the bank. Something like that.
