Hey James,
Apologies for the late response, you can match players manually by using a pending match, you can read more about this in our guide here.
You can also review our Real Time API Reference here and their is also a tutorial on using our real time services here.
If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to ask.
Ready to assist further,
- Tony.
Well the case is, that sometimes players can create a game for their friends/guild-mates only to join. There is a link posted into the guild activity chat which when a player taps will have them join it.
The game starts when 4 people have joined.
It seems to me that this would be a lot more appropriate to do as a challenge instead of matchmaking, except there doesn't seem to be any way to do a 'real time' challenge (ie, an RTSession is allocated, all the players can connect to it, and can keep track of disconnections).
So. That is my predicament.

Is it possible for a player to create an RTSession and join it, and allow other people to join it, without them participating in matchmaking?
