[11-Apr-2006] Holding and ignoring

[johnnyrotten]

Anyone tried out putting yourself on your own ignore list? I would do it but as I won't be playing a new game for a while, there's little point at the moment...

Nice indeed

to add to twill's post:

I think it would be a good idea to require after every game to give feedback for every player they played with that game - something simple that would take no time like:

Did [username] play fair? (choose one)

[]yes, definately
[]yes, as far as I could tell
[]I'm not sure
[]somewhat questionable
[]I think not
[]definately not
[]no comment

and then an optional place to post a comment about the person.

The reason for this is that people would otherwise only be likely to comment about a person if they think the person is cheating, and another person's testimony that the person in question plays fair would remain unseen, if it was not required (because if I thought this player was fair then I would not realize that they were being questioned and therefore see know reason to state the he/she played fair unless I happened by mistake to see them as the topic of a discussion).

The statistics about each person would be viewable on their profile.

Also, the person who creates a game should have the option to boot a player that joins the game based before the game starts if it is seen that this player has a very bad reputation.

Also, when a person creates a game, they should have the option of imposing a holding rule and whether it should be 1 hr, 2 hrs, or 3, etc, and it would also be great if the creator could choose the length of each round, because sometimes I can't get on my computer every day and I lose turns.

In conclusion, thank you Lack for everything your amazing and these are all just suggestions I understand completely that you have your hands full, and I do not take for granted the service to me that you have provided with this site. Thanks!

That has been The best upgrade since ive started playing in January....... I just love the fact that now when i see a person like hotgun playing in an open game ive created i can simply wait that holding M!@#@! F!@#@!# out instead of getting all pissed off. Thanks for letting me vent as I thank u, that was and Awsome idea, IT REALLY WAS !!!!!!!!!!
P.S. I dont think that the time needs to be increased I dont think i could handle the stess of waiting out other players that long!!!!! lololol

I think the one hour should be plenty ... there is no reason (outside of technical difficulties) for a turn to take over an hour ...
I have a question ... what happens if one person burns all the time for a round before you even have a chance to take a turn?
Maybe this is obvious to people who have played before but I am in my first 4 games now ... I am in one 6 player game where we have been waiting for one guy to take his turn for about 19-20 hours or so ... I dont have a problem with that ... I just dont want my turn skipped because he spent all the time in the round!

since you are in a sequential game each player gets 24 hours to make their turn. So don't worry your turn will come.

15 games haven't taken a turn in over 12 hours... I'm going through withdrawls..

Join new games.

[reverend_kyle]

Then I begin to lose games like crazy.. because I over join and end up in 40..

I miss turns.. its not good.

[wcaclimbing]

so what does the ignore list basically do? can i see posts from the person i ignore, or is it only keeping him out of my games?

[lackattack]

Why don't you click on My Ignore List and read what it says?

here comes lack to save the day!!!!

[speckknoedelsup]

i got a question:

what happens if someone starts his turns and cashes in a set , but he doesn't deploy any units and runs out of time,

what happens to his units for next turn ??

thx

[sully800]

Not that this is related to the thread you posted in at all, but he would lose any armies he didn't deploy if his turn ends.
