Player Geographical locations

Hi Just wondering if there is anyway we can pin point the GL of players so as to better suit play times etc.

As long as it requires player opt-in, that sounds like an idea.

Defining player Time Zone might be better. Places very far apart can share the same Time Zone, but I might not realize that Moscow and Nairobi are in the same Time Zone. Time Zone helps protect privacy and physical location more. Additionally, people working nights are available at a different time from other people in their geographic area.

Thanks guys for the Think Tank. Totally agree re the time zone originally tabled by Rabulias. (I am old PNP player so GL is not so important now! lol) Thanks man. Even if it was a switch in check box that allowed hosters of games to make the time zone seeable for respective players as well as on our profiles so when searching for players/games it narrows it down a bit. Thanks Guys. Have a Happy New Year. Cheers Dave
