Update on console messaging in v3...how it relates to Hand Nicknames/etc and how you configure it as part of the console theme.

Thanks.

And, as a reminder, these "trivial" messages come from collections of:

Announcements
Example: "Reminder: Next tournament on..."

HandNicknames
(I supply a LOT of these with the app)
Displays the nickname and the card images

Rules
Example: "No rabbit hunting"

Quotations
Example: "I suck - Rasta Pete"

QuizQuestions
Example: "Q: Who sucks? A: Rasta Pete"
I'm looking into how to display the question, then the answer (like in the movie theater)

Terminology (I supply a LOT of these with the app also)
Example: Card - The thing in your hand

Trivia
Example: "Jeff is the best player in the league"

You can create as many collections as you like.
You can copy collections (including the core collections) and tailor them.

BTW.

Those seven categories were the only useful things I could think of.

The goal of this functionality: Entertain bored players while they wait for the tournament to start, and also give you another mechanism to communicate important information.

If you can think of any other categories of stuff, feel free to give me your input.

How about probabilities for hand vs hand?

AK vs 77

That type of thing.

Could be in a quiz form, would make it more interesting.
