Removing Game Number as a link to Drop Game

by **coreyd** on Mon Mar 03, 2008 3:38 pm

Hello,
When I create a private game I tend to highlight the game number and send it to my friends with the associated password. More times than I'd like I end up accidentally clicking the game number during the highlight process which causes the game to be dropped.

Could the game ID be de-linked? Thanks!

If you use Firefox, there is an add-on called Greasemonkey that allows users to add a bunch of randoms scripts to affect how the browers interacts with a website. There's a script for Greasemonkey that, when you clikc on the drop game link, purposefully or accidentally, a confirmation window pops up.

It's in the "Plugins and Add-ons" subforum of the General Discussion forum if you're interested.

If you don't have Firefox, then, well, you should.

I like and support this idea. It's a common occurrence to accidentally drop a game, especially among new members. I remember my first day here, I started/dropped/started/dropped/started/dropped... etc... Took me forever to figure it out.. lol.

Well, that's because you're slow, babe. :wink:
