[Invites] Cancel/Rescind Game Invitations

[perchorin]

Phenomenal idea here. I always end up inviting V because I don't hit shift hard enough. Luckily he never played any games and is not active so it's just a 24 hour waste of time.

It's Ctrl + V to paste.

LOL. I meant Ctrl....

I was like...... No wonder it's not working for this guy.

Did you picture me just wailing on the shift key thinking I wasn't hitting it hard enough?

Yes, Yes I did.

Sounds like this would be a positive add on to the site

Yes very frustrating when I accidentally invite someone to the wrong game in my tournament. Have to drop the whole game, recreate the game and reinvite. And I am running a small tournament, I could not imagine not catching the mistake in the moment on a large scale. That would be very very frustrating

I love this idea. I think it may have been brought up in the TO group, but it would be great for everyone, not just TO's. If you invite a friend to a game and they say they don't want to play that map, you have the ability to cancel and reinvite someone else instead of trying to be online when they cancel or the invite expires so that you don't have someone join that you don't want.

Take a look at the other thread if you haven't, it details more issues that, if fixed, would be great improvements to the site.

PLACE THE NAME OF THE SUGGESTION IN THE SUBJECT LINE!


There should be away to remove invitations if a person sends one to the wrong person. Or make them 12 hours long.

[chapcrap]

12 hours is a bad idea. Being able to cancel is a good idea and probably shouldn't be rejected...

Not sure why this was rejected. Is there never any official rationale posted?

[ViperOverLord]

If it's not too much work for the techies I 100% support this.

[chapcrap]

I obviously am still in support, as are most tournament organizers.

[AndyDufresne]

I think this is probably a part of lacks Invites 3.0 update / Notification Center 1.0, either of which should help!

Hmmm ... I just clicked on a link that brought me over to this thread. At the top of my screen it looks like this is in "Submitted Suggestions." So I'm not sure why it appears to you to be rejected.

FWIW, I support this idea.

[zat]

I'm for the idea seems like a pretty good thing to me

[redhedge47]

I 1-up this idea

Concise description:

• Ever had someone hack into one of your tournament games? ever invite the wrong person? Well with this feature you can simply uninvite the wrong person that you invited! and if they join, you have the option to kick them before the game fills up!

Specifics/Details:

• This option will only be avalable to the people hosting the tourney.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

• It will make it a lot easier for the Tournament hosters to get an unwanted person out of their games.

well regular users should be able to un invite i think

[chapcrap]

Already suggested multiple times. Probably a thread in submitted suggestions already. I support it.

Concise description:

• If an invite has been sent to the wrong player, the inviter could then rescind the invite so that they can immediately invite the player they originally meant to invite.

Specifics/Details:

• Where now you see "Reserved [show/hide]", when an invite has been sent, one might see "Reserved [show/hide] [rescind]"
• Once the "rescind" link is clicked, the slot that was reserved becomes empty again.
• Invites rescinded by mistake could simply be resent.
• Players whose invites are rescinded could receive an email saying something to the effect of: "Your invite to [Game]********[/Game] was sent by mistake and has been rescinded. [Inviter] apologizes for any inconvenience"

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

• Inviters who send invites by mistake (like organizers of large tournaments) will no longer have to ask players to drop invites and be forced to wait until they do before being able to invite the right player.

This would be great. The TDs and TOs would love it especially. I believe that this has been requested/suggested before.

[IcePack]

Could have used this suggestion twice today. instead i had to inconvenience another clan and have them remake a game (sorry uckuki!) This would be a great help to us war planners and TO's.

Yeah, as a tournament organizer, this would've been a great thing.

[KoolBak]

Many times I have invited someone that ends up unable to accept / decline. Seems like it would be a fairly easy thing - any replies on this one?

[sempaispellcheck]

It's been one month since anyone commented on this, so I'm going to give this a little nudge - just to see what happens.

[sirgermaine]

Well, I'd hate to see you posting alone in your thread. I know that feeling. This idea is awesome. I really don't see a downside, except that players who are signed up to get an email when they are invited to a game might get an email, then log in and find there isn't a game waiting for them. There'd need to be a follow-up email that clarifies the situation, I'd think.
