"Start Sound"

[Bernd_Brot]

Hi there.
This topic might have been discussed elsewhere but i couldn’t find it. Too much information.
I have some suggestion for the games “blitz” and “live”.
It would be really nice if there were a simple sound that tells me that the game has started.
There are multiple sounds that signal the end of a game or running-out-of-time countdown.
Why not for the start?
It would reduce a lot of trouble for ex. loss by timeout- because i was waiting for a player, did something else while waiting. Then it beeped and the game was over and i didn’t even notice it has started.

Thank you and greetings
Bernd

Oh sorry. I just saw that this topic is widely discussed already.

Specifically:

New feature: Play short sound when game begins

Many times it takes time until an opponent is found. Therefore I switch to other browser windows or apps on my computer instead of waiting desperately. This makes me miss the start of the games and often games are canceled because there is not real way to tell if they have started, especially when I have the first move. A “game is starting” sound indicator would be very helpful. Do you think this would be possible? EDIT: MODS STARTED DELETING MY POSTS. SORRY THAT’S PATHETIC. I’M OUT.

Or instead of a sound, have a Marvin Martian voice going “Oh dear, Oh my.”
