I'm going to move the conversation here so we can discuss a little more about possible fellowship team member options that would be nice to add.
What would be nice is a user in their settings had an option to set up the following. (With 1 set of setting being applied to all fellowship & team that they belong to) I would say for each team, but that would be a lot of settings for people to place.
Available to play in team challenges: (yes/no) [if turned off, captains will not be able to select you]
Time per turn: (yes/no) - Min days: (choice 1-14) - Max days (choice 1-14,15+) [So for me, I would choose min 3 days, max 15+. If you only wanted to play 1 day tournaments, you would pick 1, 1]
Time per game (fisher clock): (yes/no) - min/max time, min/max bonus, min/max limit choices [of course I don't like fisher clock, so I would choose no and not worry about the other settings.]
Vacations (check all that can play with): Standard Vacation, Fixed weekends, no vacations.
Play with Backgammon Cube: (yes/no)
= = = = = = =
So when a team challenge is being made or accepted, have the system automatically check to see who can play what.
BIG BAD WOLF: I like very much your suggestions about the team members settings. I tried to do something like this manually for the team I manage but it is tedious work and I couldn't do it if I was managing many teams.
Also, I don't play this enough so I do not know - but would a question about handicap in go be something that comes up for team tournaments, or are handicaps just in friendly games?
