I think this idea has already been said, or it should have anyways.
However, it's not on the first page so I just wanted to bring this to the forums again. It's not a bad idea to have faster lobbies. Trust me, it does not take five minutes to get a full lobby or to vote for a map/skip. I think that the lobbies should be cut in half to 2:30 mins, I think this would give us a fair amount of time while still waiting for more people.

As I've said with the other lobbies waiting time threads, I'd say no. While, on paper, it does seem like a good idea. Shorter lobby times for faster games. Simple enough, right? I disagree. It cuts donors on their perks (kicking somebody to join), and 5 minutes is, honestly, the perfect time. It gives people enough time to take a quick smoking break, relax and go browse the forums for new alerts/whatever, check the internet, do other things, let out the dogs, get a bite to eat, grab a real quick drink...the list can go on. Anything below 5 minutes puts the user at risk of not even noticing when the game starts.

Like Tironas said, some people need to do things in 5 minutes. Anything shorter can risk them not noticing when the game starts. Some people probably just ate a huge meal.. You know what comes after that.
