Not entirely sure which sub-forum this might belong in. Essentially, (and, this is just a random thing I thought just now while looking at the dance floor, so it may be impossible to code. Heck...it may even be a ridiculous and stupid idea in someone's opinion.), I think it might be kind of fun to make the avatars in the ballroom image (the randomly selected lil guys/gals hanging out on the sidelines) clickable links to invite that specific user to a dance.
I know there's the whole "dance with the user above" threads, but I figured this might be kind of fun too.
For example: See an avatar you absolutely love in the sidelines but have no idea who it belongs to, click to dance with that person and not only find out who it is, but also give them trinkets (from the dancing, obviously) as an appreciation for a well made avatar. xD
And yes, I am aware that it probably pulls inactive user HA's for that as well, so it could be a hit or miss in that aspect. =/

I think that would be fun!
[edit]
a lot of times, I just seem some wonderful looking people in the background.
I actually really like this idea. It's cute and pretty realistic to being on a dance floor.
Agree! Really love this idea c:
This would give people more of an incentive to visit the dance floor besides just hoping they get the random popup from Boudejin, so I am down for this.

I'd definitely use this feature, too.
This would be awesome!
I was wondering earlier if there was a way to see who someone was on the dance floor because I wanted to dance with them.

I like this idea! I've often wondered who the people on the sidelines were and wished they were clickable.
I would probably do this, as mentioned, as something else to do while I'm waiting to do some scissor/scissor/scissor on the dance floor
I was actually just thinking of this very suggestion

I think this is a great idea. It would be fun.
Yes, please. I'd like to be able to compliment some of the fantastic outfits I've seen in the background. And dance with them too, of course. I agree that it'd add a touch of realism to the ballroom.
anything you say can and will be held against you, so only say my name
I'd like this, as long as it only shows recently active people.
This is a great idea. I'd love to be able to find out some of those mysterious dancers' identities.
Yes, please. This would give the dance floor more use than anything else.

If this happened, I feel like the way it shows onlookers would have to be changed. As of right now it looks like just ANY random avatar on site. Half the time I'm getting completely naked people with no mask on.
SPOILER (click to toggle)
and I swear I just saw this avatar standing to the site in the ballroom:
[avatar=hope]
That... would be Hope. Which, I guess someone who was close to her could be logging onto her account to prevent her names from being taken but still...
From what I've seen, it doesn't look like only active players are being pulled. Maybe it should somehow be filtered to only people who have recently played AND are wearing a mask will show.
