(No, I haven't read TFA, I just am taking what other posters have said and using that.)
I also remember Westwood Online (R.I.P. Westwood!) having a feature somewhat like this during Red Alert 2.
And I'm sure Battle.net *had* to have a feature like this sometime before hand.
I suppose that would be prior art.
Yes Pikakilla, but just stop and think for a moment.
At any given time, there are thousand of custom games open. Some of these games don't use the predefined game types, they make their own. Just think how long it would take to search thru it to find ONE game that you like. And then try to think of the time it'd take to create that list for you to search thru.
As on of the posters above said, why not just go to Team Training and make some Friends there, then play with them now and then.
Or even play when your brother isn't around and get some friends from Team Slayer or what not.
Well, I am the founder of the Programming Club at our school (Although it isn't exactly big...), and when I was setting it up, there was constant inquiries about if we would be able to play video games.
Now that the club is off the ground, there is interest in joining a programming competition in our area.
Maybe you're Department should host a video game day (Although you should watch out, some parents might not like it if you host a day where violent games are played.), or even a time when you help students create video games.
Just some rushed suggestions.

But I do understand where you are coming from.
