Games deleted - which one

Post by Donelladan »

Concise description:
  • When a game is deleted for technical reason, give some detail about the game to help people know which one it was.

Specifics/Details:
  • type of game : standard / terminator / assassin / poly / double / triple / quad
  • type of spoils
  • number of players
  • map played ( most important information)
  • tournament, private or public
  • waiting/active/finished game
  • list of other players in the game

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • It is good to know which of your game has been deleted. When you have a relatively high amount of game it is not easy to know which one has been deleted.



I just received this pm :


Hello Donelladan,

Due to technical difficulties game 14623324, which you joined, had become corrupted beyond repair and had to be deleted. Any exchanges of points have been reversed.

We apologize for any inconvenience this causes.

Regards,
The Conquer Club



And the game number is a totally useless information since the game has been deleted I cannot look for it.
So I have no idea which of my games have been deleted.

If it was a clan war game I wouldn't be able to report to my chief that the game has been deleted and has to be remade. Ok it would probably be noticed when someone make an update of the war but it could happen later.

And in any case, I'd like to know which of my games is deleted.

Agreed. This would be very helpful.

In this particular case I can tell you that it was a game in The Championships - Triples tournament, and it has already been replaced. In general, such information is rarely available, and it should be.

IMO, this should have been policy in the first place.

Maybe even add WHICH players were in it and whether it was an active/waiting game.
