There should be a sound when you get a notification for an open table.

Post by Perry_Li »

I always keep a boardgamearena tab open in case I get notified for a table. There are times however where I miss a table I want to join. I would like to suggest a unique sound that is played whenever a notification appears. Players should have the option of disabling it if they don't want to hear that. Also unrelated, during the press accept phase for a table, It should display under the username that they are playing in another real time game.

You can't play in more than one real-time game at once, as far as I'm aware.

No I mean the bell thing for when an open table is available.

They could be playing real-time-like on a turn-based table, though. Or viewing a replay or tutorial, or spectating another real-time table, I guess.

Or doing any of 700 other things, on or offline that might mean they aren't as focused on the game with you. BGA can't tell you that though.
