post average game length per board type ... (form used)

<Subject>: post average or range of game length information.



Suggestion Idea: Post the average length for particular game boards, perhaps seperated by "freestyle" versus "sequential" and/or number of players.

Specifics: Post the average length of games for all but the newest games. It could either added to the map pop-up folks can access from Game finder, etc. OR perhaps elsewher, perhaps in conjuction with scoreboard -- maybe another selection under that heading above? So that you can find game stats as well as people stats in roughly the same location.

Why it is needed: To give folks, especially new players, an idea of what is involved in various games. I for one started an early Chinese Checkers game without knowing it would take well over a month to finish. World Map is similarly long. The two "Might" boards, however, tend to be over pretty quickly. I think this might help avoid some turn misses and so forth as people get into more than they expect. As the games proliferate, even experienced players might want this information -- even if just for curiosity's sake.

I did not see this in either Lack's "to do" list or the "rejected ideas" ... if I missed it, I apologize (and please send me the link so I can check it out).

PRIORITY -- low. Definitely not necessary, just a nice feature I would like to see
