What if there's a queue of Settlers/GMs that you want to play with, and then it just becomes boring? <_<
And if, after creating a game topic, the slots are quickly filled, it means that most players didn't need a break in the first place.
The opposite case is that many don't sign up immediately, which is why the sign-up process is quite slow, creating that very "break."

Барон "Vampires"
Отдай свои прошлые сны,
В сомненьях себя обрети,
В бешеном танце душа кружится!
Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!
