    When you start up the FFR Game, you can also see the people's names that are playing and what song they are currently on (if thats too hard then just the name of the person thats currently playing the FFR Game.

    Then you can click on the name and then you go straight to the Challenge screen with the persons name in the opponents box.

    Just a little thing I thought of in a few minutes for no reason.

        Yea if it was just the person then it would not be that much data pushed to and from the server but for songs and names it would be greatly increased...

        That would be excellent to see, possibly it might be included with R2, but then again who knows for sure...

          That might take a while to program (I think.. it might be a bit easier than I think, but I've never tried anything like a Who's Online in PHP), and I'd rather see .68 out sooner.

              Sorry for bumping this topic, but an idea with it. I didnt want to make a new topic.

              When you click the name, a pop up comes up with info about the person, rank, posts, etc, and also at the bottom of the pop up is the challenge button.

              The names are also in order of how long they have been on FFR Game without going to a new page.

                the same sort of thing happens as it is on the forums. at the bottom it shows who is browsing the forum.

                which gives me an idea. maybe instead of doing it overall, it could show u who else is playing the song u are playing at the moment. kinda like when u look at each part of the forums, it shows who else is browsing that part. that way the people u click on and challenge would assuredly know the song u were just playing and u could challenge them to it.
                So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

                In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

                So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
                And I write the blog for their website.

                Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

                  Thought of that, thought it was good, thought of this, forgot about that.

                  Both are great ideas!
