I think giving each game up to a month is a good idea for most games that take more than a few minutes to play. Defender was a good example of when to keep the lifespan shorter, as most of the time the games would be over in a matter of minutes, the only incentive to play was to get a higher score. ...

Thanks , that was the aim gotta keep things interesting!
