A game start button (no auto start) on private games

As title - its annoying if someone isn't quite ready and the game automatically starts a person short

This is a good idea but a fair amount of work. One thing to suggest is if you have say 8 players you want to play with, change the dual-axis slider to make it so that the game only starts with 8 players. Take a close look at the create game view.

While the dual axis slider is perfect for a static party number, it fails when more people want to play or more people leave. Is it too much work to add a pause function even to the countdown for a game start to leave more time for a lobby to settle? Or even a toggle button to whether the timer counts down at all? Obviously these only have to be accessible to the party host and are only suitable for a private game lobby. Thank you for entertaining these ideas either way :).
