Expiry Date on Games

Post by samuelc812 »

Concise description:
  • When games are created, show the games expiry date on the game so people know when the game will expire.

Specifics:
  • When a game is started, show a countdown to when the game will expire.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • This will improve the organisation of Clan Challenges and maybe Tournaments, by showing when the game will expire, and how much time people have got to fill the game. Many times Clan Challenge games are created early and not filled until the expiry is very close. It would be good to know when the games will expire, so appropriate action can be taken.

Please Note: Obviously this is not a pressing issue but it would be a nice, simple addition.

Brilliant idea.
Important Tournament Notice

The data for ALL of my tournaments has potentially been lost. I am working to recover it but as I am away on business all of this week, there will be some delay. Sincere apologies.

Easy to do, and good fix. Even just a "Created: mm/dd/yy" (lol year), if that's easier.

Unless it's super simple to do, lack'll put it on his to-do list, so come back in 2 years and you'll be halfway there!

Pretty much. If a random admin sees this and mentions it to lack, he'll do a quick look into it and see how much work it would require to do; if it's easy, he'll do it. If it's not..

I too would like to see this implemented. I'd like to know which games are about to disappear before I start rallying the members to hurry up.
