I don't understand the response that if you don't see a big green block, you obviously haven't been invited to play anything. That's nonsense.
From the basic home page, on the far left on the menu is Play Now. Under that you can pick Real Time, Turn Based or Games in Progress. The real time ones are in green boxes, turn based in yellow boxes. The unintuitive part is that ALL invites are shown there, including ones you can never get into. So the totally open ones are here, along with ones that are limited to a group, or to specific players. You have to look - personal invites don't go any place special.
At the top of that you might also see a little box that says "add games." You can choose games you would like to show at the top of this list. You can add any game you happen to know or want to play and those will always be listed first, followed by all the rest. That at least eliminates searching through every game in existence.
I've been invited to games and that is where they go, but that's where all the open invites go as well. So if you don't see green boxes, it is more likely you just aren't looking in the right place.
Emailing someone about an invite is also a strange response. I don't have email addresses for anyone I play online with, except one person. People don't always want to hand out their emails to strangers online - I know I don't. I don't see that as a solution. And I agree that invites should stay longer. Sometimes by time someone knows there's an invite, it's already gone. Totally agree with you.
