His vote could be weighted more but imo s/he shouldn't be able to kick one player alone for whatever reason s/he might have. If the other players doen't agree with the kick, it should be impossible for the host to kick a player.

Yes, I would say that the weight is stored for ten minutes or so, just in case a user disconnects because their internet is flaky.

Idk if 60% is enough or 75%, that should be tested in a few rounds with a few people, it is probably a hard task to balance all this but can be pretty rewarding imho.
