Re: MAP MOVEMENT STATS 19 APRIL 08 & MAP FOUNDRY LINKS
Firstly this is a brilliant piece of work and should be stickied!
But the new categories aren't really working IMO - too many inconsistencies and I think we'd be better off with one long list covering all maps from most games down to least.
At the moment you have to jump all over the place to see what order of popularity the maps are and I don't think the categories add value and they seem arbitrary:
e.g. Why is Benelux in countries not regions when it is a region of 3 countries added together? Vice versa Iberia is list as a region, but is just 2 countries. Valley of the Kings isn't really a region, it's a complex of tombs near Luxor, etc etc.

my error...should be a region.mightyredarmy wrote:Firstly this is a brilliant piece of work and should be stickied!

therefore it doesn't qualify as a country coz its two, and it doesn't qualify as a continent, therefore must be a region in this list.Vice versa Iberia is list as a region, but is just 2 countries.
and doesn't that also make it a region.Valley of the Kings isn't really a region, it's a complex of tombs near Luxor, etc etc.
Region is defined in dictionary.com as
"7. an area of interest, activity, pursuit, etc.; field: studies in the region of logic."
therofore in my books that makes it a region...it is an area of interest.

Cairns have you considered setting up a subscription for this? Whenever you create a new one you can mass PM it to anyone who subscribed? Like how the tounement newletter is done.

Feudal is very poplar map... in my big 1v1 league it's the only map that can compete with Classicgimil wrote:Feudal raises up the board again

Re: MAP MOVEMENT STATS 1 JUNE 08 & MAP FOUNDRY LINKS
I dont think Iraq should listed under country, because its not really classic game-play. It would be better under wars or something.

I think conquest maps (feudal, realm, new worlds) should have their own section in the caterogy stats.

I think cairnswk made a mistake.DiM wrote:nagerous wrote:What's with the D day and San Francisco rush?
i was thinking the same
San Francisco
16416 is the correct last update stat
but when I do a search for San Fran games (active, waiting and finished) I get 16870 results
D-Day
7070 is correct, but 7319 is the current number of games not 9310
