Password protection for games.
Allow games to be protected with a password. Any player wishing to join must enter the password in order to join the game.
Possible uses:
Open games for friends or clanmates. Share the password with them (e.g. by e-mail, or an a clan forum), so anyone can join without being specifically invited.
In a large game, post the password for the new game. Anyone currently playing can now try to join the "open" game. However, other people could still request to join, even if they haven't been invited.
All of one player's games could be protected by the same password, so anyone who has played with them before could join.
If you want to make sure people read your Settings text/rules, include the password in there. Only those who have read the text will be able to join your game.
You can accomplish this by selecting the ‘invite by code’ option, then giving out that code to players you want to be able to join. Thanks for the suggestion!

i dont see much usefulness in this, you already have the option of only inviting people you know, not allowing others to invite friends and setting unachievable pre-requisits (which will cause only people who you invite to be able to join). even if the game is public with low pre reqs, when you blacklist someone they cannot join games you created.
