Title: Search Players feature
Post by omar on Oct 24^th, 2010, 7:05am

I wanted to send a message to Janzert as Eric suggested in the thread for "Using tools for improving a match game". I thought this would be a good time to try using the new 'Message' feature on the players profile page. But I needed a way to get to Janzert's profile quickly. So I setup a feature to search for players based on username or real name. You can find it under the 'Players' menu of the navigation bar in the gameroom. You might need to click the 'Refresh' link in the top right corner of the gameroom if you don't see it.

Thanks, I previously wondered how to find a player, now it's easy!

I just tested this feature; it is awesome! I have wanted it many times before, and had devise devious ways to get to a player page, e.g. look up human opponents of ShallowBlue and search on that page. Finding a player will be so much easier now. Thank you Omar!

You're welcome. I find myself using this feature quite often now that it's available. I too used to look on various other pages to get to a players profile page :-)
