User Options

I know you're not really concerned with this right now, but I would really like to see these features...

- Email notification upon new message
- Preferred player color (assuming it's available)

Preferred player color?

Why does it matter what color a person prefers to use?
Seems like it would be a rather useless thing to track...

If you select Yellow, then when you go to join a game, yellow will be selected by default if it is available. If it's not, have a message "Yellow was not available, please select your color"

I think we have a lot to do before we get to fixes like that. However we can keep this here, I guess it wouldn't hurt.

default color would actually be pretty cool, just select your preference on your profile and its what color you are whenever you join a game assuming its not taken, if it is you pick a color. 
it is a rather superficial option though, so its not vital any time soon.
