[Invites] Accept Multiple Invitations Option

[AndyDufresne]

Is the first post an updated list of all the desired improvements? If not, could someone write up a post of their own and summarize for easy reference?

To summarize,

• Allow players to invite multiple players to a game from one screen
• Allow players to accept multiple game invites at once
• Allow players to withdraw invites from a game, instead of waiting until they expire or re-creating the game
• Incremental Invites e.g, 24, 48, 72 (Great for TO's)

I believe this is the list of suggestions discussed.


Edit: Added incremental invites.

Added it to my list; thanks

Good work, thanks folks! I think these are some solid suggestions, and could make for an Invite 3.0 update.

Very nice! I am quite fond of this suggestion.

Yes, it's definitely a plus to have not only new things implemented, but the improvement of ones that exist!

Great idea, would escpaccially work out for the tournament organizers.

Wonder if this is getting any traction. This is a wonderful idea.

Concise description:
So i get on this morning and i have 8 invites to games (not to many) and it took me like 5 mins to do, so i was thinking that it would be a good idea to have an accept all button when it comes to invites

Specifics/Details:
It would be in the invite tab and ya, thats basically all the details, lol

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
It will make people happy, i know it will with me!

[greenoaks]

5 minutes is a long time.

i right click each one and open them in a new tab. it takes me 5 seconds.

[hmsps]

I think its a good idea and you should be able to multiple invite too

[codierose]

cool good idea i get 20+ at a time

[crazymilkshake5]

2 Positive one... um... other, lol

[Darwins_Bane]

This has already been suggested multiple times before.

[gimli1990]

i like this idea as there are times where i can only get on for a couple minutes it would be nice if i did not have to spend the whole time accepting invites for tourney's.

exactly. I can have 20 games accepted within 30 seconds. No reason to add coding.

[SirSebstar]

accept all means you have no way to check the settings on each. and just adding coding for the same map with settings and players.. that looks futile..
not a bad idea in itself, but this suggestion needs a lot more thinking behind it.

I still say the checkboxes idea is the best.

The Cook speaks the truth.

what page do you go to?

right now if the game is full you go to the Active tab but if it is still awaiting players to join you go to the Awaiting Players tab.

To be honest if it didnt navigate you away from the invites tab everytime you accepted it'd be fine. Probably the quickest and easiest fix to put it?

So many options!! And yet, so little implementation...

Actually, this option would require identifiers to tell where games are joined from. IIRC the call for accepting an invitation and the call for joining a game are the same.

[Ickyketseddie]

Well i'm no coder by any means, i just assumed (obviously incorrectly) that there was a rule once a game is joined to view the awaiting page, which could be changed to default to the Invites page. If your saying changing this would just result in ,everytime you join any game getting sent to the invites screen, obviously this is no better.

How much work is it to separate out the two?
