Why only "popular" SNGs? Why not all SNGs? And how do 180s not qualify as popular? Just had a quick look at 180s and there still seems to be far too long a gap between filling up and starting the first hand.
The only SNG which does need a decent interval between filling up and dealing the first hand is the 3.50r/180s, so that those who want to do an initial rebuy on these have enough time to recognise the table and do the rebuy.
Perhaps you can furnish us with an explanation for this delay, because I am struggling to think of any compelling reason to wait for more than a few seconds for any other SNG save that particular rebuy 180man. The clue is in the name. It's not called Sit & Stop, it's not called Sit & Wait, it's not called Sit & Wonder What We're Waiting For.
It's Sit &
