The Challenge Games feature for Blue Max is now ready and usable.

In the meantime we even changed a bit the Create New Blue Max Game page.

Now I think that passworded games will be used less and less, and in the end they will simply became history.

As usual, comments are more than welcome.

Have fun

I would like to voice my support for passworded games. There are 12 Clone Squadron members. The "Clones" create passworded games that they refer to as "Troll Games," in which any of the 12 Clones can sign in to, as the Clones always use the same password. To phase out the passworded games in favor of "Challenge games" for Blue Max would be, in our opinion, unduly restrictive and limit the "fun" as a Troll Game creator knows the pool from which his wingmates and opponents will draw from, but not the final composition.

Just a little support for the Passworded Games creation option.

The Clones will, however, give the "Challenge" games creation a go and see if that format is preferable.

Perhaps by "extending" the challage to more players than are required to fill out a game, i.e., you can list as many possible opponents as you desire, rather than just the number needed to fill out the game, allowing the challenged pilots to accept the challenge on a first come, first served basis, that would allow the passworded games to pass into history.

Also, don't forget the tournaments set up for Blue Max, such as the FKT tournament, where each squadron could have more than 5 pilots but only 5 could fly at a time. The Challenge Game format would require that the Squadrons select their pilots before the game is created, rather than allowing for the flexibility of choosing the pilots after the tournament game is created.

Just some additional thoughts.
