AFOG DEVBLOG #19: FEWER EMAILS, BETTER REMINDERS

The latest AFoG devblog unveils a revamped email reminder system, ditching the old spammy approach for one that actually considers what players care about. Instead of blasting everyone about every event, the new system starts with users — checking their activity, preferences, and even how long it’s been since they logged in (with a “fifth of the time” rule to avoid pestering lurkers). Priority goes to registered tournaments, games they’ve played, or casual guild events, with a “Try Something New” nudge at the bottom of the list. The update also tweaks tournament prize displays, fixes double refunds, and stops ghost emails to inactive accounts. Want in? Join an event, start a guild, or become a sponsor
