Invite people to a game

Post by syphy »

I think that users should be able to invite another user to a game.
I think this because there are so many people that we would love to play again, and instead of filing through each one to see whether they are awaiting a game, we should be able to invite them.

Request to Join a Game is Pending on the To-Do list.

Isn't "Request To Join a Game" the exact oppisite of this guys "Invite Someone To Play" suggestion?

Still, Lack's comment is relevant, it can be dome via PM's and e-mails.

What might be a nice choice however would be a 'favorites' list, sort of the opposite of the "ignore" list. That way all the names of the people you like would be in place, avoiding the sorting. You could even have a little field to type in reminders about why you like the opponent, etc.

What's the difference between this and private games?

I guess it would allow you to invite a few friends, while still leaving the game open to fresh victims.

This is redundant. To do now, just
1. find person's name (on old game list, from scorboard, etc.)
2. send pm saying "I want to play a game, when are you available?"
3. after getting response, set up private game 4. email person private game code and password.

OR just set up the private game and email your friends the # and pass. . If you like, send it to multiple friends and say "first come/first served". (That gives more chance of finding enough friends who are available to play)
