My 2cents
“which in this economy means even less then usual  ”
1st Leagues
Leagues are how newbie’s explode into 50 or more games all at once. Sign up to 3 5player leagues and you have 150 games as soon as they kick off.
Too many leagues have newbie’s that play and drop out. I suggest league play be limited to those who contribute to the site. Adds an incentive to contribute too
2nd Auto pilot change” Nick, now is the time to cringe or quickly type NO!  “
Why not add a page that allows contributing pilots to jump into the seat of any plane on autopilot?
The page shows some number of the oldest games waiting on auto pilot(s)
Maybe like this
470574: player1 player2 AUTOPILOT (S.E.5a) player3
New Models, 12x10 Board, Advanced rules, move timeout in 14 days, Turn 25
The user can select any of the displayed games and take over
For those who are stat watchers a flag “default no stats” determines whether the game is included into your stat history or you are just along for the ride
Some mornings after a few leagues kick off I am maxed out but there are other times where a couple of extra games would be good to have. And one could consider it a way of helping the site out beyond the yearly contribution. It’s a way to meet other pilots you may not have crossed paths with, and the last best reason is I can put the following into a game message box
Hello and welcome to the RAF’s S.E.5a, I will be your captain for the remainder of this flight, please observer the no smoking, PK or PE chits signs, sit back and enjoy your flight
And the last Bonus for Nick is, if I am busy jumping into auto piloted planes I will not have the time to write such wild ideas
PS I still want the game option where pilot names are not displayed first
