I have a request for the Fly or Die site. Although I am posting this for comments, I hope that Fly or Die understand that the idea is primarily addressed to themselves. Could we have a historical record of games available for players e.g. PGN scores for the last (say) 20 game played by a user? You can export games to PGN when they are finished but sometimes your opponent challenges you a return match immediately which eliminates that option if you want to play on - which is the whole point of the site surely? It would also be useful to those who wanted to research their opponent's game style or do a post mortem after a long match. Obviously, the way to access this information would be within the information page for a player. Thoughts people? I'll need some support if this idea is to go anywhere.

Re: ..sometimes your opponent challenges you a return match immediately which eliminates that option if you want to play on... Actually, you can use PGN export even if your opponent is asking for a return mach: - the dialog is not modal, so you can press the PGN button while the dialog is up - even after you start your return match PGN data won't be ereased - you should press PGN button right before you return to the lobby: all matches played in that session will be exported in a single PGN file (each PGN file can contain multiple matches)
Thanks for feedback. I admit I hadn't noticed the way the games just kept stacking up in the PGN record for a match. I presume that FlyOrDie do not want the bother of making a game history available from the players information page which is real pity. I feel certain that the more competitive players would have been interested in such a feature.
