Speeder Deadbeats

Postby FreeFalling123 on Wed Nov 06, 2013 2:29 am

It’s tough to get away with bitching about your own incompetence, but I figured I’d make a list of all the people who have gotten me on deadbeats, not to count the countless doodle speeders I’ve missed. And this is just within the last month.

Now, I’m not going to suggest a phone call to “player x’s” house, I’m not going to suggest an accept the game has started button, and I’m not going to suggest a 10 minute first turn, as nice as those things sound. I’ve been getting good at thinking out loud, so here are my kind of opinions on what would be a kind of resolution for players like me:
(Considerations being made are for speed games only)
1. Give us a speed game page that you guys can update and improve upon.

2. Give us a 5-min warning when all players have joined, such that for any speed game we have 5 minutes before it starts, etc. Nothing to do with players possibly dropping the game, (maybe this goes with my other suggestion on finding a way to make the map foggy when it’s not our turn). The feature could be enabled for players who need a safety net, as I do, and shown when joining that there is or is not a protection for 5minute warning.

3. Give us a wall message when speed game message was missed, or a notification when you have missed a turn.

Now I am not the expert on wiring the system. I am however getting points stolen from me because somehow I lose the page with the 1v1 speeder there and then I lose the game without any formal warning or notification…

Benefits: Appease Free and he quits bitching ;)
Actual Benefits: Less wasted points on the site overall less angry players, more people making games that have a low probability of being joined quickly and remembered by the host maker.... :mrgreen:
Make the site a better place :D

P.S. -- until then join 1v1s made by freefalling123 for free points... about 270 a month.... :sick:
