Red Light, Yellow Light, Green Light on Game Finder Results

[n00blet]

Simple, really. I expect someone has already suggested something of this nature, because I doubt it could be too hard to implement...

Concise description:

• Show the games turn status in the Game Finder Results

Specifics:

• Show who's turn it is with the green light we see in our own game list
• Show who is actively taking a turn with the yellow triangular sign we see in our own game list
• Show whose turn it isn't with the Red Stop sign we see in our own game list

...have all of these show up when someone does a search on game finder or when someone looks at another player's list of games.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

• Will allow players to determine if a friend or opponent is online (especially if they have blocked display of online status)
• Allows players to skip posting on a player's wall and go straight to the game the player is playing to hit them up in the game chat
• Allows for more socialization in the game chat, from my perspective I'd go into more friends games if I knew they were online at the time...playing at the time.
• Can help RT players to know who is online so they don't have to spam walls to let players know they want to play RT
• Can help players playing freestyle to know if their turn might be coming up

I don't see the real value in this suggestion, and it really does not help that you're suggesting that it will help show the status of people that activly works on staying invisible.

I like it. I cant stand it when I'm playing a freestyle game and have to figure out if the other player is online or not. Nice way to show who is online and who isnnnt without haveing to click each of their games.

Also helpful for talking to teammates.

I think this is a very good idea, the only issue I can possibly think of might be the way lack made the game-finder it's compatible for all game statuses though I don't know if there is a reason why it isn't like this already. But I suppose it could just have tabs at the top "Awaiting players, ongoing, finished" like in the my games section.

You're right, it would be just as easy to implement this. And, yes, it is a very good idea. Knowing who is on and who is playing is important.

I think this deserves some attention. This suggestion could benefits friends on CC. If I see my friend hasn't finished his/her turn and has forgotten to hit the end fortification button to get spoils, I could help him/her if I saw this when checking his/her games list.

Please put the red, yellow green buttons on game finder, not just on "my games."
