1. Either way, the enter will work fine or an invisible one behind the timer would be cool just so it's more "touch" friendly.
2. Ture, just that the particular game I'm playing in this Friday, the guys are far less serious than some and have been simply using a handheld timer for blind changes. They are used to waiting until the next deal to re-start the timer so that's what i was thinking. Guess there's not really a need for it, they can either get used to it, we can increase the time per round by a little bit, or just hit the pause button until the next deal if they are that unwilling to accept a change hehe
4. I could care less about what sound, just something to get our attention. I think your time could be better spent elsewhere rather than trying to figure out a way to customize this at this point "in the game"
... I'll take a look at the blinds.xml and just edit it to what we use in that game.
Thanks man!
