Summary:

HELP-TO-AVOID LIST (aka banlist)

The purpose of this game is to be able to avoid those players whom you think cheat (but are not [yet] banned), those who regularly CD or resign, or whom you don't want to play for any other reason. It would work like the "Mute" function, you can "Avoid" anyone by placing them on your list.

Once someone is on your list and joins a game, which you already joined, you'll get a notification that one of your "avoidees" joined, and you can decide whether to stay in the game or leave it, before it starts.



RESTRICTIONS AND SPECS:

a) No avoidee can join any games created by his/her avoider.
--
Meaning if you create a game, you can take it guaranteed no one will join it you don't want.


b) No avoidee can join any game having an avoider inside after there's less then 1 phase length time left till start.
--
This means, if an avoidee [of any already joined player] joins the game the avoider can leave before the game was meant to start, and he has enough time to do that. [May result a filled up regular phase game doesn't start immidiately after it's filled but will start in time.] Also the avoider can stay as well, if he/she wants. Having less than 1 phase length time left until start, means the avoider may not be able to step out from the game, so he wouldn't avoid whom he wanted. The same stands at live games.


c) The avoidee has the right to know who's banned him
--
If you get banned by someone you have the ability to ask him why and argue.


d) The avoid-list is not public
--
Meaning you can't see who tries to avoid who, just who tries to avoid YOU.


e) 48 hours time limit to change status
--
If you ban/unban someone there's a 48-hours delay when you can change his/her status again and unban/ban him/her. This meant to not to help you figure out who is in an anonymous game, unban him/her, and join.


f) Those games, which already have an avoidee of yours inside are non-joinable by you.
--
Though this is a help to avoid list, and you might want to join anyway, this restriction is meant to make you handle your list seriously. Once you ban someone, you have to face the fact you might restrict yourself from some games and banning has consequences, it's not a tool to change daily.
