No more outrageous huge difference acceptances of the open challenge, forcing you to repost the challenge. Defaults to 100 so be sure to remember to change it to what your preference is. Linda
maca 03-Jul-09, 03:51	It's in all challenges, not just in the open ones. I just don't think it's that useful, you still gotta search a suitable team by hand. Regards, MaCa.
4boys 03-Jul-09, 06:58	Yes and you still need to be sure the person presented as a 1200 player is not a 1500 player   But it keeps my Open Challenge, which I use like a 'list' of open players, from being cancelled because a captain accepted it with wide rating differences. So it does eliminate the ridiculous.
britgrl 31-Jul-09, 17:44	To good to be true... here I was expecting to get the same reply on a message recently sent requesting a change in how end team games are shown (win, loss, timeout etc) and blocking a players availability - and sure enough the notifications came through.. Awesome! Congrats to all of you that put in the same request many times over - hopefully the option to block a players availability will come thru also!! Yeah... yipee... yeeehaww... hoorahhh... Okay, I'm done.
sad_but_true 02-Aug-09, 03:56	:) How good is it that we get the player result plus the finished board with out having to open every finished team game. This has already saved so much time. Time that can be used eslewhere. Thanx heaps guys, im a fan. Jas

maca 04-Aug-09, 09:10	This is really one of the few very useful features GK has implemented to help the team captains. Regards, MaCa.
starcheck 05-Aug-09, 02:32	Fantastic! I definitely agree MaCa. This latest feature will be most helpful! Maybe we're on a roll here? I agree with Britgrl that maybe it's time to again suggest allowing captains to set zero games for players when needed. Such as when they are ill, or vacationing but checking in now and again to see what's up with the team, etc. etc. Quite pleased that I can spot timeouts early on.
doji 05-Aug-09, 10:27	And I couldn't agree more!!!! Good feature, now the possibility to give caps control over availability of the players!! Jo
