Speed game - NOTIFICATION OF TURN

[photojoe]

I'd like the following options:
Get email when it's your turn (My Smartphone beeps when I get email, perfect!)
Have the computer make some noise when it's your turn and you're currently in the game. AJAX can do this right?

I hate missing turns and people going deadbeat because they didn't know it was their turn or that the game started.

Go to "My Settings" and u shud see the option for notifying u of ur turn thru mail. check it and it shud start notifying u from there onwards.

This does NOT work in SPEED games.
I am specificly requesting the same feature that's in casual games to be applied to speed games (as an option one can turn on or off as desired.)

Well, the game only stays active for 15 minutes... and after it starts, you only get 5 minutes to play...

if you start a speed game, and leave CC, you are necessarily asking for trouble... if you get the email, you have to read it, jump back to CC, and then make your move

the notification by pm makes much more sense, but even that can cause a delay that can cost you...

your best bet is to monitor a speed game very closely after joining, or setting it up... otherwise you may find yourself without a lot of time left for your turn...

I believe thats why the email isnt sent out as email... there's hardly any point
