Delay MIA & Attack Timer Popups by 2-3 seconds Started by: Rubix on Dec 20, '16 18:02

--This only applies to people who purchase timers and use popups--

 

I love popups (said no one about any other website). When you aren't paying attention or you are in another application, they can be very handy so I leave them on.

 

However when I am paying attention and ready to click the second that timer hits zero, I am delayed by a popup. Sometimes I have a few tabs open and I am seriously delayed having to click cancel on each page. 

 

I know that there is a disable popup check box and I use it often, but I find myself easily distracted and it has led me to miss some notifications. 

 

My suggestion: Have an option to delay the popup until 2-3 seconds after time hits zero (On MIA and Attack) so that the person actively ready, beats the popup and the time resets. -This is similar to how you can bust someone out of jail when the timer hits 3 seconds-

 

Mostly this suggestion is for the MIA timer, but for events where our Attack timer is 20 seconds long(like today), I'd like to have the popup if my mind wanders but if I'm paying attention I'd like to be able to beat the buzzer. 

 

The 2-3 seconds can be reduced to 1 if people think their MIA might be stolen out from under them or think they might lose 48 seconds a day shooting or maybe I'm the only one that races my popups and y'all think I'm crazy for suggesting such a thing but I'll open it up to the community.

Any thoughts on this?

I'm in favor of this, the pop up can be really annoying when you're already on the attack page ready to go. I think a 2-3 sec delay is a good idea.

Agreed!

Kind of have to agree with this here as i think a delay would kill the rage that's felt when having to exit out of multiple tabs so as to not deal with the multitude of pop-ups that happen, especially when you are ready to send that vic to go swimmin' with the fishes.
