[GF] Polymorphic Search Options

Postby Butters1919 on Sun Oct 27, 2013 4:38 pm

Official Suggestion

sempaispellcheck wrote:Concise description:
  • Option on the Game Finder page to display (for example) only poly 2 games without having poly 3 and 4 games mixed in

Specifics/Details:
  • Instead of having 1 "Polymorphic" checkbox on the Game Finder page, there would be 3 checkboxes: Poly 2, Poly 3, and Poly 4

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • People who like to play (for example) poly 2 games on a particular map should be able to search just those games without having to wade through pages of poly 3 and 4 games.
  • Would also be useful for Map Rank purposes - some of us consider poly 2 more similar to 4-player doubles games than to poly 3 or 4 games, so we should be able to Map Rank ourselves on 4-player doubles and poly 2 games simultaneously, without having unrelated poly 3 and 4 games included.
  • Should not be too difficult to do, since the (2), (3), and (4) are shown for individual games.




Be able to search polymorphic games for games with 2, 3 or 4 slots

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

- adds more "search-ability" to the site. As someone who prefers poly games (so far) with 2 slots as opposed to 3 or 4, it would make these games easier to find. not a huge inconvenience but, would be nice.

SUBMITTED under the assumption that this menu will be hidden until polymorph is selected.

Edit: Scratch that!

No need for this.
If you tick the 2 players box as well as the polymorphic, you'll only see two player poly games.

Not correct. Clicking the 2 players box brings up all poly games (dubs, trips, & quads).
The suggestion is quite worthwhile.

Same thing?

I guess? Though I disagree with your assumption - I am suggesting replacing the "Polymorphic" checkbox with 3 separate checkboxes.

I believe that was from some conversation I had with the OP of that suggestion. Not sure why I put it. MERGED nonetheless, and OP updated for maximum clarity.
