  Quite simple sir. Green means you are ready for a game of any type. Blue allows you to specify the type game to which you wish to be invited.         :-)

   

  Really?

  How do you specify AS/MP...etc?

   

  Edit:

  Finally found it in the FAQ's.

  First time I ever clicked on that button!

  3+ years and still learning;)

  Try it. It gives you the options. Also being blue gives you first priority if people choose your option.

  I'm experiencing a scenario that will explain why we need a new status light.

  I have a CC match play game to play with a fellow CC member. I turned on the red light to let him know I was on WGT so I wouldn't get any invites with a green light on. He must have thought I was playing a multi-player game, which I wasn't. As soon as my opponent saw that red light, he logged off most likely irritated.

  If my opponent would have saw a light of any designated color, indicating I was on WGT and ready to play our match, then I wouldn't have to be rude and decline any invites. I know it chaps peoples asses when a player turns down an invite, and they risk not being invited in the future.

  I like your idea, our CC has had those very issues.

  Thank you for your feedback Hewsy and Hyena.

  FWIW, I'm in talks with WGTshoe, and he's got WGTicon involved as well.
