Anything you feel is a tiny idea, it may not deserve its own thread with a million RE:'s, place it here. We could clean up the board a little eh?
Like this for example:


During a sabotage, If there are no weapons left, ALL of your spies should return, It makes sense.


Perhaps there should be a timer to schedule realm alerts when away? For the hard working individuals, or the hard learning ones at school? "realm alert begins at (the timer set here in the command center) ends at ( )!"

great topic/thread, kind of a "brainstorming" thread ;)

sadly.... at which point were you convinced that being told there are no weapons left meant that your enemy has no weapons left? Maybe something else is wrong? Maybe your spies are teling you something you are not hearing? Secondly, when sabotuers are sent, some do not come back, although i wish it were less than 10%, it is the nature of Sabotage. Ain't broke, no fix please :)

Great topic :)

i am not to sure about the the alart lvl timer. if that gets stuck in there will be smaller naq for us to get. intel logs and attqack logs could be cleaner insted of showing 20 of the same person stick them into one so you only see one name and when you click on the name it will show you what all was done and when.

Just turn it up when go to sleep/work/etc.. like most others do. No need to automate.

I like your Idea. If Naq is your intrest (but who's intrest isin't) what about if we could broaden the attack search's variables in more ways?

"Only show players with naquadah higher than X"
etc?

but to respond to goo:
The message said something along the lines of "Your spies indicate there was nothing to sab. lets hope their right, or lets hope we can believe them" I lost five spies.

I know he didnt, I sent spies over (which means his realm alert wasn't on I think, I suppose?) right after I read this message! The intell listed none. He was left with raiders/guards.

Both! We could "condense" both the attack logs/intell logs, this was a good idea. The extra attack search variables should be a new improvement, but the naquadah limit was the only one I can think of right now. I thought of only show officers of ______ but If you wanted that just look the player up to begin with, so there is not much to improve upon in this area.


Another minor change:
Make an automatic login feature! This helps us out because we wouldn't have to put in all that stuff when you go to the .com and it helps out the administrators. You are only supposed to have one account anyway, the only ones to suffer would be the cheaters. This could effectively put an end to multiple accounts from one computer!

Ok this is just making the game too easy, you should have to look through tons of pages to find the high amounts...

There are also people with more than one person in the same house, on the same computer playing the same game...

How about the ability to save certian attack logs indefinetly, but you have to select which ones you want to save?

These are manual ops, It would be easy on the servers (I think, right?) if we just pasted the info in our own writing pads.
forgive me: Now that you mention it, the "remember me" would fly straighter.
replijake:I always try to stick up for the tauri whiners (I dont know why)
complaining about their disadvantages, this is an attack savy feature. Would it be better suited as a Tauri race ability (the naquadah search feature) ???

Use Opera / Firefox like the rest of the world is starting to do and it will remember your username & password...
