Just come up with an idea which benefits a lot of us here. It would be a great idea to implement a feature which allows those users who logged out while being issued with a tournament invite a chance to enter their specified room in time to continue the tournament. This is by adding a "Play" button on the "game rooms" form (page), and just like you can play in ranked games, you click "Play" and away you go.

This arises another issue of others entering the wrong room. Another feature could possibly be implemented to allow the user to enter the room which is meant for them, and the Play button to be disabled for those who aren't supposed to be playing against that particular opponent.

This is just a thought, but would be cool if it could happen

You cant reach a player.. when hes logged out..not idle for over 20mins ..or did i missunderstand you?

Mike

otherwise - if im logged out, cause i forgot to take my silly shot to stay, i wont know about it. What good is it to have lets say 1min more?

sometimes people get logged out when their invite comes, and would like to have the invite sent again when it says please take invite or be Disqualified or have fizzical's option, both would benefit us all i am sure.

Dont remeber seeing it for 6years i've been here donna, unless it came on my year off, love the idea personally as i seem to get blacked out alot, or in fizz's case disconnected, would be nice to also see a feature where if its say 0-0 in final, you disconnect, you can re-enter the final but become 1-0 down as you "left" instead of losing the whole tourny.

Love the idea hope it comes!

How about the game just simply sends another invite when that warning message comes up telling you to enter your room quickly?

this is a good idea, however may be hard to implement, I'm not sure because I've never made an application/game using java, but it may seem tough to connect with people who aren't in the game window.

Simple answer, don't get logged out

I'm not 100% sure about this, but you may be able to have a java pop-up / dialog box appear which would be used to re-send the invite if the user has been logged out.

If this was possible you could use said pop-up to log in and be redirected straight to your tourny room.
