I still like "The League Formerly Known As 'Not The Blizzard Ladder'" | ||

Suddenly we have active chat channels. When I played this last night I was hanging out in the channel talking about games... joining other games to watch people play. Doing re-matches. It feels like BW. I worry that AMM would take away the personality of a system where you have to find someone you want to play with. I prefer AMM because it makes it easier to find games. The channels aren't all that good for this, at least not with SC2BW. I strongly support this idea, by the way. I've been hoping for something like this for months. I knew it was only a matter of time! | ||

I certainly hope bacon can find a way around this. You dont have to do it through the game, you can do it through the website, have everyone in a chat room and have a program do the matchmaking, you get matched then you go in game and play the person. | ||

I certainly hope bacon can find a way around this. As bacon stated, matchmaking is planned after we get automatic replay uploading working. Likely this will occur using the same client that uploads replays. You will either press a key combination which will be detected or alt-tab and press a button on the client to ask for a matchmaking game. After a short period of time (hopefully enough people will play that it can be short) the client will play a sound, and display a notification. It will then both display the name of a chat channel where you can meet your partner and copy it to the clipboard so you can paste it directly into the channel name. This will avoid having to add your partner to a friends list etc. | ||
