Join multiple private games at once


Specifics:
  • You list all game numbers you wish to join in a box, or select them from a list in some manner
  • Type one password for all games (to join multiple games the password must be identical)
  • All games are joined in a single click and with a single typing of the password

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • Many tournaments create multiple games all with the same password.
  • Many users set up a bunch of games at once and PM the password to a group of people.
  • You would no longer have to repeatedly enter the same password, or repeatedly go to your inbox to join a big list of games

There are the [to] tags... The way it works is like this:
View Game 1337 (Auto-Join Game)
Code: Select all
[to]1337 over9000[/to]

Or, to put it in text...
Code: Select all
[to]GameNumber PassWord[/to]

It's not quite what you're looking for, but it's close and quite useful.

Actually this suggestion was made above has its potential to be expanded. Why dont we have an more advanced inbox ?
In the current one you have your friends in a plane and all are in one field representation.
All of your friends are ordered in the alphabetical order and online ones are held at the top. It wud have been helpful if any player wud have ability to organize the friends. For example i have friends of mine, my clan members, New World lovers, escalator addicteds etc. Whenever i start a group of games, i find it clumsy to look at all of the friends at once and start selecting one by one. But if only i had my ability to group them, then i wud be able to click only on the escalator addicteds section then corresponding games wud go to them in one click.
