Number of games limit.

[elfword]

If a user is playing turns in at least one game (or via some other way of guaging their activity post-joining), could you increase the number of games they can join? It sucks to not know that there's a limit to the number of games you can join, then join mostly 8-12 player games that are going to take forever.

Per Robinette's suggestion I have made an avatar. Whether or not that qualifies me for an upgrade or not is up to Badorties I suppose I'm enjoying the site a ton regardless.

I need an update. I play private games nightly with my friends and now I have 4 games. I didnt know that was the limit and now I cant play tonight without an upgrade

\\Bado, I guess we've found one way of tying user engagement workflow (getting users to add stuff to their profile, or later to connect to other services, etc) the carrot is escalite'ing features. 2 game limit until you've added a photo, or avatar, 4 game limit until you made some friends. or invited someone, etc etc etc. then subscriptions to be able to host games. etc etc. then, "micro payments" ?

That's pretty goddamn brilliant.

I have added an avatar. Update please?

 

[PointSpecial]

<--- avatar Can I get an update as well?

Btw, is there an "invite" button anywhere? I've got some people I want to send the link to, but short of simply sending them a link (or sending a link of the wallstats post which is where I found out about it myself!)

When you start a game, there's a variety of invite fields at the bottom of the page, the "New Members" ones allow you to input the email addys of people you'd like to invite.

May I please have an upgrade to allow more than 4 games? I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread; that prior post has been deleted.

Thank you.

EDIT: I have added an avatar within my "Settings" page however it doesn't seem to have migrated over to the forums.

I'm guessing there's a slight delay between uploading and visualisation - your avatar looks fine to me ;-)

Yeah, I just started my first game and I saw that. Still, it might be nice to have an "invite" button where there can be a generic message (that could be tailored for your friend) apart from inviting them to a game.

I'm a member at chess.com and they have something like this:

I think this is a great way to invite people (especially if you have a number of friends you want to invite, but don't want to invite them all to the same game or to any game, at least initially).
