icon A 'Random Hold' button on Hold Selection screen (0)  
I don't know if this has been suggested before... but here it goes anyway.

I would LOVE to see a "Random Hold" button on the Hold Selection screen, which picks 1 hold to play.
The hold would be picked from all the downloaded holds and from the list of holds available on CaravelNet.

What do you think?

EDIT: Yes yes, i know the random button is available on the Holds page online. I just would love to see it ingame.

Parameterized random would be even better. Let's say I want a random hold that's rated 7 or higher, between 5 and 8 brains of difficulty, and that I haven't played yet. That way you're more likely to discover a hold you would like.

And add a search section for the author of the hold, the name, and the version:D

I am afraid this sounds like a way too niche function to implement given how low on space on that screen we already are.
