Only one small problem I see with the Game Invitations is that players can invite anyone to a Tournament game. This could potentially disrupt and delay tournaments if a player accidentally (or otherwise..) invited nonparticipants to the game. I suppose this has always been a problem, as Tournament games are just private games with a header, but with the invitations it seems to me that there is at least the chance that it could happen inadvertently. Perhaps only the Tournament Organizer should be able to invite players to Tournament games?
In any event, I must say I like the way this site is progressing.

If as an organizer you find a player inviting non-tournament-participants to the games, I would give them a warning then kick them out of your tournament if they do it again. Or just kick them straight out of the tournament. (As a TD, I would support either one.)

However not everybody joins the games within 24 hours. Is there a way to make sure either the spot stays reserved for longer, or the invite PM will not delete automatically after 24 hours, so players can still join the game later on without me needing to send them the password via a new PM.
Lack opted for a 24 hour reserveration since currently Conquer Club mostly operates on a 24 hour time-scale---think of Turn times for Sequential and Freestyle, etc. If there is enough demand for a longer reserveration period, we can look into that after the 24 hour reserveration has had some time for us to acquire data.

I don't understand why I can't reserve spots in speed games though

My guess is that people would reserve a spot for somebody who they know won't join, and purposely delay the start of the game...

(1- I was making games, and putting in people for reserves, and a player I didn't want to be in it joined. This in itself is not a problem because I can always just restart, but after reserving 7 people I realized this. Then I had to talk to them and tell them to drop it and why. Any way to fix that?
Maybe the invites could be sent out from the creation page.
That way, any slots needed for friends can be reserved prior to clicking 'Create'

Is this legal?
potiusmori wrote:Oh... Idea/Annoyance I'm seeing with the reservation system.
I've seen a few games now where it's set up as follows:
(2 player map)
slot 1: -open-
slot 2: -reserved-
Is there any point in maintaining reservations when no other players are holding slots (outside of possibly a tournament game)? Shouldn't the game, upon last "active" player leaves the reservations be removed/game destroyed, similar as to what happens when the last player leaves a game without reservations?
Vertigo wrote:One solution that would help with missing tournament games and with excessive PMs might be to add another tab/link at the top of MY GAMES page that says something like INVITED. Then you get a page where you can see all the settings, etc. of the invited game including if it is a tournament game.
Then when you are invited to a game, the MY GAMES link could say [1 NEW] similar to when you get a PM.
