Has anyone suggested incorporating a chat room or private forum into the league system? I think it would:

-Help leagues feel more social, as opposed to just a way to fill your schedule
-Promote friendly competition among league members
-Make it way easier to make friends on this platform, thereby increasing user retention
-Probably more stuff too

This seems like an obvious feature to me but it doesn't exist, and after a brief search I couldn't find an instance of anybody else suggesting it. I don't even know if this game is still being updated but if it is then league chat would be a nice addition.

That would be a cool thing to implement if Alex was still here :'')

The game itself isn't being developed further. But the discord is a pretty active chat: http://discord.gg/4AHNmR2Cfc

I know discord has an option to add sub-topic chat threads, maybe something like that could be added in for leagues.

To be fair (as an admin of the discord), I don't think we have enough people on the discord for there to be any use for league channels/threads. If there's more interest in the future, perhaps we can add it

I completely agree with Veritone. I am one of the Discord Server Owners and personally, we have about 60 members in the Discord Server, but only about 20 are actively talking or participating. I don't think right now that a league channel would be the best thing to add. Hopefully in the future once we have more members, that could be a good addition to our growing Discord Community!
