No, gameroom still has its 15 minutes AFK timer.
In rooms with 10-14 players, he needs at least 2 friends to vote no. 1 friend isn't enough. In a room with 15 players he'll need at least 3 friends to vote no (as 12 YES votes would be enough to kick him, which means that if him + 2 friends vote no, he'd still get kicked).
Thanks for the early feedback! You'll have enough time to properly test all sprays in depth, no rush.
That's correct. You can now take screenshots of the person that started the votekick on you and report if necessary. Because if votes are repeatedly started for the wrong reasons (e.g. to repeatedly sabotage your weekly competition) the user that started those votes may get punished for it.
