Non-started games

There always seems to be a large number of games that have been created, but nobody has made any moves, including the setup. Shouldn't a game automatically disappear if no move has been made in a reasonable amount of time? Say 5 minutes for an over-the-board game, or perhaps a day or so for a postal game?

I agree.
It's also annoying to load up a game to have a look at it and find that it's been going for 53 days with only one move (yes, that's the current status of one game).
Maybe there's a way of blocking Guests from starting postal games? That is just silly because next time they log in they'll be a different guest number anyway.

I'll setup a cron to delete games that have not been started. Been meaning to do that for awhile.

Perhaps it would be nice to show next to each game in the list of current games the number of moves that have been played in that game.
