Buddy list privileges

After the introduction of the ignore list there was numerous requests for the buddy list to feature as a white list for game challenges.

So, to restore balance to the universe, this has now been implemented.

This means even if you set criteria for who can challenge you, if someone is on your buddy list, they can challenge you successfully regardless.

This feature is optional, and although on by default for everyone right now, it can be turned off from the "my settings" >> "my challenge settings" page.

Of course you have people on your buddy list, Xanthos. I'm sure you have plenty of friends.

Thanks for implementing that. It is a great idea after all.

Would it be possible, while the code is still fresh in your mind, to allow multiple additions/removals instead of one at a time? Particularly useful would be to add a whole clan to your list.

The site admin actually listens to the site users' requests when making new features. Doesn't that disturb the balance of the universe for good?

Russ is a good person.

Russ is the coolest kid on the playground.

Wow, i recieved two games from one of my buddies this morning, which was strange seeing as i was unavailable for challenges. This would explain it! Not complaining mind, i think this is a good idea. 🙂

sorry 2 interject but i wanted to know if Russ/ Chrismo would consider my suggestion for a few non-sub tourneys.

Yes they might. But then they'd consider how much more they'd lose if they offered tournaments to non subs.

Lol go away mate you are always going on about non sub tournaments you have no chance...The point of the site is if you pay you get everything if you dont you get 6 games and thats more than enough..
If you want a tournament then cough up your money if they were just giving non sub tournament why are people like me paying to keep this site running.
