    You can set up a lobby type with no server by leaving the server dropdown unselected in the lobby type configuration.

    In this setup, the lobby will disband after sending the STARTING event once it's full. At that point, you can use
    the OnLobbyEvent callback and connect your players to Photon Cloud when the DISBANDED event is received.

    Lobbies in brainCloud are flexible, they can be used to gather players before transitioning into hosted servers or async offline matches, and more.

    Hi @william - thanks for the suggestion - I'll present it to the devs.

    One note - when doing custom queries, MongoDB should automatically choose the appropriate index for it -- you shouldn't have to mention it in your query. Thus - adding a custom index for queries that you are finding slow SHOULD pseed them up... (thus your last feature is actually part of the system)

    Sorry for the confusion, I was under the impression a publisher key gave you certain read-only permissions on a user given they own your game (this was silly in hindsight)

    While the users in question had public profiles, their privacy settings for friends lists were set to private.

    Thank you for your help! I now understand what you meant by "as long as users grant your app permission".
