Friend Challenges Beta

Greetings! You may remember a while back I was going on about us working on the friend challenge feature, but you haven't seen much of it so far. Well, the wait is over! More or less.

Repeated intro

Greetings! You may remember a while back I was going on about us working on the friend challenge feature, but you haven't seen much of it so far. Well, the wait is over! More or less. This feature requires a lot of things to sync properly so the user interface doesn't show wonky things, or challenges getting mixed up with each other as they zoom across the network, and with only so many of us here in our little studio, getting this properly exercised is a bit tricky. So, please consider this a bit of a first version. We'll be ironing out the wrinkles during the week, so if you have a minute, and a friend, or several, please challenge them and let us know how it works! You'll find the list of friends via the button on the right. Please be aware that only friends who have the game will show up in the list. The round multiplayer button will indicate if you're waiting for the regular "public" queue, or a friends challenge. You can't do both at once.
