Added your team to the "Pending Games" list - to make it official. Smile

it would if the opponent was notified when you click the green check.

KhorneliusPraxx, I believe that if you click the red minus sign, then not only does it remove the game from your list, but it also removes that match up from your opponent's list. So if you click green or red for every single possible match up (and your opponent's all do the same) then everything should work out as intended. Only if someone neither clicks green or red will you be left in the dark.. but that should only happen if someone doesn't know if they want to play you (which probably means they don't anyway).

I think it intentionally doesn't. thereby eliminating any social pressure to be cherried.

so it is purposely making it harder to get a match up
first, black box was made a separate division instead of a feature in ranked and now purposely making it harder to get a game in ranked. Why? It is supposed to be the main division right? Just migrate everybody over to BB so we can be guaranteed a match every 15 minutes.

yes, it does. however, it's trying to stop the "game of getting a game"

at least that's my take on it. although I have a feeling the admins can see who's selecting what matches to better judge who's being a cherrypicker. it's all being documented.

the Java chat should be mentioned in the help, in the how to get started guide. At least briefly early on so new users know it is there and they don't need to go to an advanced irc section about downloading programs.

It's a wiki. You just volunteered!

It needs an update with the new gamefinder, whilst you're at it.

I can add a bit more on the chat. Ranked is not really my expertise at the moment. Looks like we need Christer's gf help moved into it plus a couple of images.
