I am not sure if this would be a programming nightmare, but a league-by-league Chat feature would be awesome if it could be done logistically.
Chat would be especially useful during a draft, as there are times it would be great to have real-time communication with others. This would add a great dynamic to the game :-)
Someone mentioned Google Hangouts at one point .. I have no experience with that.
I did search chat hosting and came up with sites like Chatzy .. does anyone have any experience with it or any other chat hosting websites? MFN32 will be drafting next Monday so I was going to try to experiment setting one up over the weekend.
I've used Line in other multiplayer games online, works fine. I think both that and WeChat are available on pretty much all platforms.
If you set one up let us know how it goes, I have drafts coming in 10 and 21 soon and might suggest to those owners that we do the same if turns out to be helpful.
I'm hoping it's one of those "we take the initiative .. see the value .. jdb does it" kind of thing .. lol
Oh, I see the value and part of the recent interface update was to get some infrastructure that could more easily handle a chat system. Not sure how soon but it will be coming.
