this is a good idea
Alerts in vote chess games
I would really appreciate it if there were a similar reminder in vote chess games as in daily chess games, e.g. 12 hours before the end of the voting time, if there isn't a vote yet. Best looks to me, if this would be an option that any team member can select, similar to tracking comments.
Imho this would make it much easier e.g. for an admin to avoid timeouts of a vote chess team.
Or maybe only 1-3 votes have been made, depending on the number of players, or just leave out the number of votes, just give an alert before 12 hrs if it's a minimum of 1 day game. 6 hrs if it's a 12 hr game, and so on
Good idea. I've seen a lot of vote chess games lost on time in interesting positions.
Large teams and well-organised teams don't usually have a problem, but there are some smaller teams that aren't as well organised but that still have strong players and good discussion, and would benefit from this.
Vote chess games should be listed same as daily games. If there is move to vote for, should be listed on "to move" list (or it was to play ? ).

While that would help avoid missed votes, it would increase the number of people who mix up their daily and vote chess games and vote early by accident when making their moves in their own games. I'd rather find a different solution to the missed votes problem.
As far as I noticed now, there are probably a lot of unintendend timeouts in vote chess games.
For me, it looks best to have the possibility to chose such a demand to receive alerts either in the vote chess game, in my personal settings or as an admin/coordinator option.
