No one does anything like Blizz's custom mode? You should play at least a few more games. That's the norm from what I've seen. Someone makes a game, people jump into the game from a list of currently "open" games, some countdown starts, if you are on XBConnect people say "don't rush the count!" and then the game starts. There are others that have constantly running games where people actually jump in and leave while the game just lasts forever, like some Battlefield servers. However, custom game making is the norm in the games I play.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
