besides perferring som1, what ways is there to make ur friends pop up more on the ranked list?

im having a hard time finding my friend's game

I dunno, same 4 me...

I've never once been able to find my friends, but its probably cus my router isn't open.

Well what I do is get my friend into a private chat then seach the exact same settings at the same time. We usually see the same games.

check if your NAT settings are set to Open if not you could change this in your router settings using some guides on the internet

or you could host some ridiculous games 17 rounds / assasination or something retarded like that
