They should extend the accept/withdraw window to 2 minutes, that would cover little things like bathroom or getting a drink/snack if the queue takes longer than expected.

My only issue with this is I feel like it would make queue times a lot longer overall. As it stands, I imagine a fair number of spots open up from people missing the 45s timer...if we had to wait over double that amount of time for a spot to open up I feel like queue times would grow somewhat substantially for everyone.

Actually, most computerized queue systems are not truly FIFO based (first in first out as you describe). Each person is in one of multiple queues during the matching process. Each person in the queue assigned order number or Rank. As the Queue empties (matches are completed, duty commenced), each person remaining in the queue has their rank updated. This allows for pause because change the state from active to inactive, then when the ranks update, the paused person does not have a rank increase. Ties are broken by length of time in queue. In perfect world these time would correlate directly to Rank but it not always the case.

Nope, you are removed from the Matched queue, made inactive and have your rank lowered slightly. At this point, previously explained logic would take over, as you are back in pending queue.

The exception would be if you were in pre-defined party and a member paused. That would cause the pause for all members of the pre-defined party.
Or, have it behave exactly the same as it does now when one member of the pre-made does not accept the duty pop. I have never seen this happen so I do not know the effect.

You're smart, I like you!

I have a better suggestion. How about not banning players from the DF queue when the entire server goes down? I've been banned from DF twice now because tonberry has booted players or crashed. You'd think there'd be some sort of logic to it.

This bizarrely happened to me yesterday, 4 times, waiting for A Relic Reborn: The Hydra, usually wait up to 90min for a >30min wait with about 5/8 confirmed and then.... I go away for exactly 45 seconds and duty suddenly pops and ummm yeah... oh well at least I won't have to worry about leveling up until next weekend when there is actually people to do the content with....

I feel like this new rule is a nightmare for those duties that rarely get joined by other players... and the ROG/NIN race is still making the DF in this patch the worst it has been in this game
