"Waiting For Host…"

At the beginning of each race, players are usually met with a "Waiting For Host…" note at the top as they wait for everyone else to finish loading. This situation is a bit different for the host, who can see the players who have yet to finish loading, along with the ability to start the race after 15 seconds of waiting.

Originally, everyone could see this list of players, not just the host. Although I think I can see the reasons behind this change, wouldn't it be more accurate to revert to the original format, and only show "Waiting For Host…" after the host can choose to start the race?

I'd need a lot of extra hands to count all the times I've been told "Vic, upgrade your damn toaster already" when, in fact, some players got disconnected and I'd have to wait 15 seconds to start the race. C'mon guys, my toaster's not that bad. :P

Good point, I would support this change. What was the reason for the change from the original version?
