I've seen this come up in a number of places - it seems that if you touch the screen anywhere other than the server listing it toggles the join / unjoin function so it's very easy to accidentally unjoin a game. Once a game starts and it's not a game you're a part of it's removed from the list.

We'll definitely fix this in the next build, apologies for the confusion.

Sadly we can't. The way the servers work is they generate a universe specific to the size of the player count that entered. Everything is calculated according to that. We have been discussing maybe allowing a little overlap, but in any case the problem would still arise that there is a finite size for the generation, and after those slots are filled there isn't anything we can do to enter people.

just get 1370 people to join the current game open. It'll spawn right away then. :)
