[Conf] Join a Game Confirmation Window!

by **SolidWolf34** on Tue Mar 06, 2007 1:34 pm

What do you guys think.. sometimes you go to the join a game tab under Game Menu... and we accidentally join a game that happend to be the last spot left, and we can't get out of it!!.. I think CC should have a pop up window that says Are you Sure You want to join game ######?...

Let me know what you guys think.. i already sent CC an email about this!!

You should be able to alter Ishiro's Confirmation Script to do that. That way the rest of us who find confirmations annoying needn't be bothered.

And suggestions go in the Suggestions & Bug Reports forum, by the way.

unnescessary confirmations get really annoyin. i always click end fort by accident but i just take the consequences. anyway the element of luck in joinin a random game by mistake should improve ur play :wink:

The reason I don't like it is because sometimes I want to get into a game as fast as possible. Besides, if you don't like the game that you joined, you can always join another. If you can't because you are full, get a premium

As long as you arent the last player to join a game you can just drop it from the My Games page. If this is a constant problem for you maybe you should slow down when joining games.

Include a confirmation step to the beginning of each game, allowing players to either drop when accidentally joining the last slot of a game or to avoid playing with specific players (i.e. bad feedback).

Players should be able to "confirm" immediately when they join the game if they don't care who they're playing with (such as host) and limit a 24 hour window after the last player joins to allow other players to accept the setup.

Possibly allow host to eject players or allow players to select teammates before game begins would be complementary to this idea.

Priority 1 - I don't really care, just ideas.

i was wondering wat happens if u want to enter a game but u click the wrong game number. and u have to play since there was only one place left before it started. shouldnt there be a question saying do u want to enter that game. that way u can be sure u get the right game. i have entered games and lost points because i dont like that game map or settings and i was the last one. i say there should be that question before u enter the game. but i dont care. jus thought i would help out. and see if it was a good idea. hope it is.

i support this idea but if you want it implemented you need to use the form they are very fussy about that :wink:

Aerial attack drew up a Greasemonkey script to confirm dropping games. I'm sure if we asked him politely he could draw one up to confirm joining games as well. Or any of our other brilliant GM coders.
