User blog:Coolmax260/The simple solution to the map game problem

Alright. So many map games go inactive... And I have a theory why.

People don't get notified.

Every map game aside from the creation games (MITW and Claustro) are made on pages, in the comments.

There are many problems with this:


 * 1) People don't get notified when they need to take a turn, or when there's new info.
 * 2) Runners don't get notified when someone takes their turn.
 * 3) Even worse, many pages for some god-awful reason don't let you take a look at older comments- so people may not even know that a turn was taken.
 * 4) People may forget they're even in the game- and only stumble upon it in the recent changes. (This happened to me in the Last Frontier.)

The simple solution?

Make map games in threads.

That way everyone will be notified.
