Accounts

We had all been looking forward to creating accounts in the game. With this additional feature, now players can add people on their list as friends and play with them. Additionally, this feature will also help the game to weed out disruptive players from the game. In other words, if you are a trouble-maker within the game, players can easily report you and show you the door.
