v3 Arcade is a wonderful hack and brings a new alternate life to the forums. With challenges and competitions.

The problem I face though is members sign up and only play the games. Where they have no activity in the forums. So what I'd like to do is find out about limiting play time.

First off I'd like to define that if you are under so many posts you can't play in the arcade period.

Also... people who are in a specific usergroup only get a certain alottment of time per day.

Maybe like an if / else statement for usergroupid

if
/* 30 minutes playtime daily */
usergroupid playtime => 1800
display $arcadetimesup

else

(regular arcade code)

I am not sure if this would require a cron job or not. Furthermore... being a PHP Novice I don't know exactly what would need to be edited and defined. If I could get some help with this I'd be greatly appreciative.
