Not a high priority at the moment, but I may be able to get something going once I get the team chat rooms set up and have a base to work from using that.

It sounds like the main portion of this that people are mostly excited about is the idea of a "live" game. That won't really happen, since most games actually finish within about 10-12 minutes after they start. One thing I could think about doing, however, is trying to compile some sort of simulated live game sort of thing, where the game plays out over 30 minutes or an hour, and officially starts playing at a set time. If you come in late, you miss the first bit, but you can watch it unfold as it goes. I dunno if that's really worth it tho.

Not sure if it would be or either to be honest.

There's other things that need to be fixed first, especially since so many agents have lots of players on different teams.

However, this could be cool during the playoffs.

The games don't have to be live I don't think... just let the host of the chat room (or any GM or however) control the next play/previous play buttons on the replays. With the replay-rewrite greasemonkey script all the info you'd want (score, quarter, time, etc) are there...

Maybe this is harder though, to have one person control which play is shown for everyone else...

Neat idea!

I'd like to set up a chat server or two at some point along the way for private chats, etc. I'll add this to my list of things to look for when browsing feature lists.


not implemented yet?

I guess your whole team is on and off GLB at the same time?

Oh lets not forget the gameplans, individual tactics and useful information that needs to be relayed to the team.
