don't know if this has been requested yet but i think that all killer games should pop up in the chat box window just like it does when a tourney, golden break, long potting streaks, and things like that are.
it doesnt have to have a clickable link like a tourney..but if something comes up saying "5 Man Killer Available" then it could lessen alotta headaches caused by waiting for players to come play. Thoughts?

that is not half a bad idea mate,

obviously have a button in the tourney room available to the host to advertise the availability of the match to the chat room.

it would decrease the time to wait for the match to start especially if it is 10 man killer.

good idea

Great idea - should be simple enough to implement as well.

Would only have to add some kind of anti-spam filter to avoid people announcing their game 10 times in 10 seconds, other than that this sounds good.

glad you guys like the idea. I figure since notifications pop up about who "ran the rack" or "so-and-so won their 2nd of all time tourney", then we can have killer games pop up the same way automatically once a game is created. who has the power to make this happen?

Cool idea. Would be best targeted for games of, say, over 5 players?

Shouldn't cause any floods as its rare to have multiple high-number games waiting at the same time.

Posting here is all you have to do, Nick will pick it up from here

cool..do u think its likely to happen?

Yeah, including 5 and up would be good.

If including 3 and 4 man games it would probably get a bit prime time spammy.

Even better, base it on the frequency with which games have been reported during the last 30 minutes (for example). More than one game created every 5 minutes = no announcement, less and you announce it. This would remove chance of spam, while making certain games are announced in slow periods (which some times happen when you'd not expect it at all)

as far as spamming, my idea wouldnt have that problem.
the alert would be automatic instead of a user making the alert...just like a golden break is broadcasted automatically, killer could be the same as soon as the game is created.

Yeah good idea m8, I joined a 10 man game the other night, about 4 of us were waiting for 5 mins and the game creater left to post in chat room "10 man killer game available", came back in, 60 seconds later the game was under way.

can this work? only needed for i think 6 and up for my opinion.

and i think also if someone wins a 7 and up game of killer they should get an announcement

can someone who has the authority tell me if this can/will be done.

Spinner has already told you...

"Posting here is all you have to do, Nick will pick it up from here"

Normally Nick responds to these threads himself, but I guess he's a bit busy on other fronts these days.

Be patient

ok gotcha.

uppin for Nick

almost 2 months since i made this suggestion and still no one with authority has responded on whether it can or cannot be done. what a shame.

Sounds like a good idea to me, will look into it.
