Last first and then I will comment on the above.

Seems a bit over the top to not allow the person starting the jam to set a
desired cc license.

Also seems dicey in that people could play stuff for which they don't hold a
copyright on.

Now to comment on the GPL bit in light of the cc license bit above.

Is the client GPL and the server not? If the server is available and GPL too,
someone could add in the license option bit and run it on a different site I
guess.

Does anyone know?

all the best,
