Including Map Name in the Turn Notification emails

Post by xgenic »

Concise description:
  • Including map names in the turn notification email's subject line

Specifics/Details:
  • I didn't see any previous threads on this idea but it seems relatively simple. When I receive an email notification of my turn in a game, it would be nice to know what map that game is on. This would help me differentiate what game it is, without having to log in. I'm not clever enough to memorize an 8 digit game number to remember which games I'm playing, but if I see it's my turn on Hive Round 20, that would narrow it down for me.

    Currently an email topic looks like: Game ######## - Round #
    I wish it was like: Game ######## - <map name> Round #

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • Helps people know which games they are being notified of their turn. Some games I want to be quick about my moves, other games I'm willing to wait until I have more time to dedicate to make my moves. I might make moves on a simple map on my phone, but a more complex game requires time for me to log into my computer.

I have not, but if I'm already on my computer that doesn't help me much. I'm looking for an easy way to look at an email on my mobile phone and determine if I want to go log in to my computer.

Thanks for the suggestion though!

I second this. Once my game load is light enough, I use my email notifications to alert me, and having map in the subject would be useful.
