Can We Have A 'now Playing' Entry?
« on: August 19, 2006, 11:41:00 AM »

Just as the topic title says really.

I noticed that Illusionsofgrander has it . Thought it was a very nice touch with the personal review score.

It would allow forum users to perhaps make a decision on what game to buy according to other users sidebar review.

Thanks.

its not a slot or anything for me, and i have seen others using it... i dont feel it adds any length to a  post, and i havent had anyone tell me to remove it.

that said, unless a head mod pops in to say "bad idea, please remove" within a couple days, ill let you know how to do it.

Yeah, that is pretty cool, I noticed that too.  I was wondering how you did it.  But yeah, better wait for a head mod or HSD to say it's cool.

Just put a few spaces in your "Location" profile entry after your location followed by "Playing: A Game Here" and you're good to go.. So long as you guys keep it in control (nothing ridiculously long, etc) then I personally don't have a problem with it. I can't speak for anyone else though wink.gif

yeah, i keep it to one line max...

you have to have a pretty long location for it to fit perfectly on the line below.

Thanks. I'll give it a go.

If it's added as an option then I think it should be limited to one game and one score out of 10.

A line can be easily added. We'll discuss it and get back to you here.
