Onderwerp: fellowship teams

Ever been on a fellowship team in a tournament (or challenge) only to find one of the team mates hasn't been on for 6 months? Then the tournament can take the better part of a DECADE to finish waiting for the dead player to time out.

Or, do you check every player's profile before selecting them to play for the team?

Or, do you find that one of the players on the opposing team is "dead" (hasn't logged on for months)?

It would be nice if, on the team "roster", you could see the player's last action date. Also, it would be nice if you could have a setting when defining tournaments (Team vs. Team challenges) That says something like: Any player who has not accessed brainking for 30 days automatically forfeits.

Summertop: 30 days is a bit harsh, as some people can take long periods while on vacation, for instance.
Besides, games drag on much longer because of active players that play once a month, than because of 'dead' players that will eventually timeout.
That said, I support your request - a team captain should be given as much info as possible to select the best players for the task

pauloaguia: Well, I would expect that the 30 days would be definable so you could pick 90, 120,7, or whatever you want. Then team captains could decide whether to join based on that ond other settings.

Summertop: If you look at a fellowship team on the main fellowship page, players who are not on for 30 days will have a gray background.

Unfortunately I believe that when the captain is picking their player, the gray background does NOT show up. One suggestion would be to make sure the gray background is there also since I know some people don't want to kick others off the team in case they come back, but of course can be confusing how it is now when they are picking players for a challenge because you don't know who is not active in the challenge team picking part of the process.

BIG BAD WOLF: I think if we had that active / non-active tag beside there name it would work. One they could set themselves if they just didnt want any more games to play for a while, but it would set it self to non-active if they have not been on Brainking for 30 days for example.
Then the Captain would always know.

MadMonkey: I've posted something over on the Fellowships board so we can continue the discussion over there - since I think we all have some pretty good ideas that we can work on and give Fencer a final description on what we would like.

Onderwerp: Re: fellowship teams

I would like to be able to restric type of games a team captain can add me to on my profile by the following criteria. It should also red flag but not stop me from accepting games that don't meet this criteria.

*Only except games over X time limit but under Y time limit
*Will not put my active game list over X games
*Will not put my active game list over X games of that type
*Aponents BKR is unrated
*Vacation days allowed or not

Would alsobe nice of there was a pause tournaments so if an emergency comes up I can push that and if any tournaments I am signed up get to that date I am automatically removed from them before they start and team captains can not put me on a team.
