How GameKnot could be improved
1.) For team matches and ladder play you should be allowed to set Max. Games at zero so you could temporarily suspend new games in that field and then return to activity whenever you want.
2.) The "HELP?" is almost totally useless. You can ask just about anything and all you receive are irrelevant answers. GameKnot should be more interested in dealing with problems. Perhaps a line for platinum and titanium members with a chance to discuss problems with actual human beings.
3.) When a team gets down to only 1 member, why can't the team be dissolved so the remaining captain can join a new team? There are currently just such team captains that would like to join my team but they can't get out of there defunct team.

I am a team captain and will consider renewing my premium membership if these issues can be addressed.

Get into the end of the line, bro...  

Many Captains have been preaching about these same things, particularly the 1st one.

it says java void 0 or something like that.

with that said a new update to blitz would be nice.

The void (0) message shouldn't be appearing. Maybe you could try another web browser and click on the same link. Does it only appear for the analysis button? (many functions work via javascript:void(0) links)

"Max simultaneous team games: 0!!

OMG, that is so awesome!

I can't believe that they finally implemented it!


Thanks, GK guys!

Yes, and limits such as 20, 24, 30, ..., 90 and unlimited.

Previously you could only set 2, 4, 6, ..., 20 and unlimited.

Team Management
Is there an area on the website where team captains can manage their team? Sometimes you
need to share info with the other captains and it would be nice to have a page where the
captains could leave notes so that they remain for other captains to see. You might want to
add something like:

Don't schedule matches for PlayerX - he timed out a bunch of games.

or...

Please add games for PlayerY

or...

PlayerZ prefers to play against people rated higher than he is where possible

Captain's Club
Such a club exists. Go to GameKnot Main Menu/CLUBS/All Clubs. There is a 152 member listing called Captain's Club. However I don't think this will be of much use with your concern. Better would be to find or create a few friendly sister teams with whom you can offer and receive specific player request. Send me a request and I will see what I can do. Team MOON WALKERS already has 3 sister teams but 1 more would be fine.
