Remove unwanted registrations
It's common that people make mistake when they register, so I get 'zombie' teams and the scores are less readable.
When I facilitated the game for a large number of teams, it was annoying. For ~20 teams I got 3 or 4 'zombie' teams created by mistake with huge negative scores in the end of the game.
It would be handy to remove these teams or hide them.
Only the facilitator should be able to do that. So I would suggest a hidden HTTP REST endpoint, or a hidden button on the web interface displayed only for localhost.
Interesting.
We introduced passwords as an attempt to deal with this issue. Usually I ask participants to not create a second team, but use their password to update whatever they need.
Probably a better solution would consist in not accepting teams to be created after a point in time.
When I facilitated the game for a large number of teams, some people created teams twice, even when I asked them to update their team with their password. I considered not accepting teams to be created after a point in time, but 'zombie' teams were created at the very beginning of the game. Hiding some teams & not accepting team creation after a certain time would be two different & two useful features IMHO.
