Sorry, muffafuffin dragged me into the PPT thing

@muffafuffin: they didn't not log in for 3 days. They tried to PPT, it apparently worked, they went to bed, got up, and it was gone, and they had been hit all night. I'd rather see that fixed, then add convenience for race wars.

And I'm not spamming the thread, i said i think it's pointless atm, and people kept telling me my OPINION is wrong, so, i must defend my opinion, as they (in general) can't be "wrong"

I would ask you to keep this on topic, please leave the PPT stuff etc elsewhere. I still see no irrefutable argument against my suggestion.

Said it was good. Just felt like other things should be implemented/fixed with/before it. But it is a good suggestion.

Should see if admin is willing to take some suggestions on base races as well? So there's at least a few core ones.

I pulled myself out of this because I knew it was going to go sour.

Everyone needs to just calm down.

As I equally knew someone was going to say that, I am calm, and I do realize my posts seem to be coming off very strong. I really don't mean it like that, for me this is a civilized discussion, I don't think it's heated at all to be honest... I am done though, both points have been given many times, and if Admin actually reads this, which he won't unless someone points him to it , he can decide what to do.

Sarevok no hard feelings I hope... . Your right they are both opinions and neither are incorrect (even though I might've directly said yours was wrong ).

lol, na, i though it was a good idea anyway.But yeh, so many good suggestions falling to deaf ears

IDK if my suggestion was misunderstood or I did a poor job explaining it.

When you click on "alliance rankings" you get a list of alliances. Under the heading of member count you get a number of people in the alliance. If you click this number you get a list of every member in the alliance.

What I am suggesting is instead of a "race search" option, make the "Race rankings" so that where the header of "count" is, the number is clickable and gives you a list of everyone in that specific race.


Hope that's better.

also a good suggestion by Lore.

I would have to agree with grimgor on this one.

Would the Admin not then have to add all the races to the Race Ranking page, as opposed to the top 30? Might make turn change slower or something of the sort... I am sure he had a decent reason for not adding them all in the first place. Good idea though if the drawbacks aren't too drastic.

Ah, so rather then a search, just a listing. Wouldn't that basically make it a 2nd alliance, just on race, instead of "relationship" per say

I don't agree with that, but w/e...
Also... @ Emp... it's just an SQL-search, and the page (as long as the basic page settings are given in by admin, but that's a relative easy job) itself would be generated by the database.... not too difficult. Only thing is that he'd need to recreate the layout for some of the other pages, and that would be the slightly harder part...

Ya that's what I said, not a hard function to add in... the hardest part would be re-arranging the rankings page to include a Race Search along with Name and ID and whatever else I am missing there.

indeed ... bump

Definatly agree on this

we do need race wars in TGW

or it will get really boring lol


but we will all still play

i would like to see a search race button althought i think it would be a bit of work to do but worth it

I doubt it would be hard at all, it would use the same code as the current search function save for the field name it was searching against. The sorting might be a bit different, since you would probably have alphabetical listing versus a ranking system, (or both).
