For each game, show the opponent's name (username for a human player, or "AI" for the AI player), game length (i.e. end time - start time), and the outcome.” Since there is no end time for saved game, how to display the game length for saved game? Some option I think are: 1. save time – start time 2. leave it empty 3. mark it as unfinished Thank you.
