[done] New game - chat notification
« on: 30 August 2011, 15:27:01 »
There should be a notification about a newly created game in the chat box. When I am connected to IRC, I have no chance to be alerted about new games.

A sound is played when the # of games changes. By this you know there are new games (its not perfect but works most of the time since its possible 1 game starts while another new one comes in at the same time).

I know, but the sound is played only when I have opened a window with MG. When I am connected via IRC only, there is not any notification - only messages about users who leave or connect.

Good idea! When a new game is waiting for players I'll add a message to the lobby for all users to see.
