New feature: Private gamesSo here's the first TWHL game:
Added the ability to create private games last night. You’ll now see this option on the Create game page.
When you create a private game, it will generate a link that you can use to invite your friends/family/coworkers/twitter followers to play it.
When it completes, anyone who played it will get a notification and will see the game listed on their profile. It will not be visible on the rest of the site, BUT the link to the game can be shared so others can view the final results. Which should be useful for things like forum communities or offices where there may be people who want to see the results, but weren’t able to participate.
Coming up is the ability to set the size of the game. So you can scale it to the number of people you’re playing with (to a degree… since less than 7 or so wouldn’t make for a very interesting game). But for now you’ll need to share the link with at least 12 people for a game to complete. On your profile page, you can see the status of the game and how far along it is.
Enjoy!
