we could search pppl by nationality or let ppl join games by nationality, i might seem racist in some ppls eyes but sometimes i would like to play with ppl of the same nationality

im for it but not because of nationality, just time zones. i want to play with people who are awake when i am so i can get more than a turn a day

Agree with searching countries, don't agree with allowing ppl from certain countries to join games only.

i support now that i have another reason for time zones, and it feels more comfortable playing with ppl of ur nationality so that u dont have worry about just because u did a stupid move u get negative/neutral feedback as where if u were with ppl of ur nationality they probably be nicer. even more so, mybe u could have a search of ppl by time zone

i suggesting this, probably rejected but oh well,

searching players by nationality:
you can search for not only games, ppl on scoreboard, but y not just saerch ppl for their time zone nationality. sometimes nationality will make a difference, in 1 game i had there was a spaniard that could not speak english. about 1% of all games played.

Why it is needed: it is needed so that it will enhace the game playing and talking expieerience on CC.

Priority** (1-5):
priority is about 1.5 but i bet some other ppl wil think of it way more immportant.


Will u take this oppritunity to enhace and improve this website Lack? Or do u think it isnt worth it? its ur choice make the right one

I think nationality is pointless but there could be an edtition to what you can search. From the posts on this thread I think the main reasons people would want to search the nationality would be 1) language and 2) time zone.

If you search the American nationality, because it is such a melting pot, you easily could find somebody who does not speak English well (Econ2000 you are not one to talk about speaking English properly, read your first sentence of the last post), and because the US is so large, it is also easy to find someone who is in a different time zone than you.

This would mean that you would want to search (using myself as an example): English, Pacific Time.

If you notice, 'Sortable Scoreboard' is Pending on the To-Do list. Most likely, sometime in the future (when more pressing items are taken care of), there will be many improvements to the search on the scoreboard.

Damn, I just put a seperate post on this :oops:
Basically, I agree with the time zone idea, but not with the restriction... I don't like the idea of being able to tell people that they cannot join... :evil:

Timezone, yes. This is a great idea because it will allow people to get more than one turn a day.

Nationality: No. Shouldn't even need explaining. A persons society doesnt change how well they may or may not play a game, and communication is rarely limited.
