something i'd like to see - though i may be alone in seeing the advantage of this - is the ability to invite someone to a series of individual, counted games. right now we can invite someone to a series of games the end result of which counts as a single win or loss, or we can invite someone to a bunch of individual, counted games, but all those individual counted games start at the same time. what i'd like to see added is the ability to invite someone to, say, 5 individual games that don't start all at the same time, but in sequence - only one running at a time, and the next one in the series starts when the one before it ends, and each game in the series counts as a win or a loss for the players' records (unless of course the "not counted" option is chosen by the invitor).
does that sound like a good idea to anyone else? it seems to me the only thing missing from BK's invitation options.
it would basically be the same as inviting your opponent to a new game each time your game with them ends - just without having to go through the invitation process all over again for each game. or conversely, it would be the same as playing an [x number]-games match, but with each game counting toward the players' ratings.
in fact, it could be implemented in just that way: as an option to count each game under the [x number]-games match choice.

Mr. Shumway:Me too. But, yet again, I am going to ask for the feature that allows us filter those who can pick our invitations by their Provisional/Established BKR too.
Onderwerp: Re: invite to a series of individual games
King Reza: unless i'm misunderstanding what you're saying, we can already do that. setting the BKR range of people who can accept your invitation is in step 1 of the game creation process.
i was thinking my suggestion of a series of games would be more useful when you're inviting a specific person to play than when you're putting a standing invitation into the waiting room anyway. when you invite a friend, you know you're up for a number of games with them in a row, but you won't know that if you don't know against whom you're going to wind up playing.
Onderwerp: Re: invite to a series of individual games
plaintiger:No. i'm asking for a feature that allows us to choose whether we want people with provisional BKRs accept our invitations or not. Currently, BKR accepts 1860 and 1860 just the same.
Onderwerp: Re: invite to a series of individual games
King Reza:Everybody has to start somewhere, spare a thought for the newby to this site they have to play games to get a BKR. If you limit them to your games they could struggle to find somebody to play to get a BKR. My opinion only
