A few questions I have for this implementation. In the event that all four don't make the scheduled match/all eight (or twelve or sixteen or whatever intended number divisible by 4) don't make the scheduled tournament, would there be features that either 1) allows alternate users to request to join in a certain order or by first-come-first-serve and/or 2) excludes certain users (example those already participating in a different bracket)?
Hope this makes sense, of course. Let's start with the much simpler task that Carlos proposed first.
@spacebar We have a feature request that would work well with the upcoming World Championships, and it would be a welcomed feature by the 4 Player Chess League, where we schedule games every weekend.
When inviting 4 players to a game, if they're not online at the same time, it's been challenging to start multiple games at once since we can only start 1 game at a time. It would be great if we could create a game, invite 4 players, and have the game start "Now" or have it start at a scheduled time when all 4 players click a Join Button. This game then shows up in the Lobby at the scheduled time, and the 4 players will see the "Join" button to start the game.
This way, we won't have to wait for players to be online, and multiple games can be scheduled ahead of time. Just something simple like WordPress uses would work great.
