I really like the new ones, they're spiffy and I'm already used to them!
But like it was suggested - I think it would be good if a person can't play because of the no double-turns within teams thing, then their light should be blue or something instead of red.

the different shapes add one more thing to help you spot what's going on at a glance. thanks.
one more thing that might help would be if it did something like flash or turn your name bold when it gets to your go. is that possible/desireable?
cheers

True that!! Or maybe dark green, like a green light that got turned off.

i agree, the double turn thing being red is really throwing me off

Good, good. I love the idea of a turned off green light. Sounds perfect to me! :)

A few other suggestions:
1. A green light with a red X through it.
2. Green light with a red D in it.
3. Yellow light.

The 3rd is my favourite since we no longer have circles for everything. Similar to traffic signals, a yellow circle would indicate you may proceed, but with conditions.

Lastly, as for the red signal...I just thought an octagon would be cooler. But I love the new signals nonetheless.

Out of those three, #1 is my favorite. #3 would be too similar to the other yellow signal, in my opinion. Although a blue light would be just fine as well.

I like the idea of a greenlight with an X through it. That would easily solve the problem.
