Are there any plans for rengo games (go played with 4 people) on this server in the future?

There is problem with games, where is more players than two. If somebody leaves server, what server can do with games ?

I dont see the problem. If a team does not make a move within time limit, they lose. Rating should not be affected by team games. Or you can have separate rengo rating.

Or maybe, the teammates could agree on a time limit, say two days. Pretend that black#1 moves, and then black#2 doesn't move for two days, then black#1 could move for him.

I dont think that would be fair. Players should alternate in making moves. That is the entire idea in Rengo.

It also wouldn't be fair if one of the players never moved : )

I dont understand why that should not be fair. If he never moves then the team loses. What is the problem? There is no difference from individual games.
