- Fixed inactive days details on Games Details pages.
- Fixed quiting on Day0, so it doesnt count towards your total quit count.

Hi Requiem! Please, where's this statistics page?
Ishtar.

At the bottom of the screenIsh there is a link that says "Stats". Left click it and all the countries with related statistics will be displayed.

Left click the name of the country that interests you and all the active players from that country will be displayed.

TR

Unless some of the 123 listed as Unknown are Bulgarian.

It's scary..
Over 200 people don't know what sex they are.
And 123 don't know where they live =P

hehe

What a doped out community
hehehehehe

ok. lets stop the general chat now.

keep posts strictly relating to the Updates/Fixes made.

u should make the people who are under unknown fill out their info make it so people who has anything unknown only allowed to play 1 game

interesting suggestion Raptor, but better put in the Suggestions forums rather than here.

random announcements are rellay cool IMO!! well done!

what is that Boris??? please dont SPAM these forums.

Best to post in 'Question Corner',*boris.
Crusaders are not in the game.Is just day-off for 'troop-of-the-day'.

I only have shady rights to say this but:

This is the Notice Board. This is in no way a spam forum! You are allowed and welcome to make topic related replies.

Req. could you explian this a little:
"- Buildings in "Disappearing" mode are reset back to 5 turn countdown when they are under attack or being taken over."
Regards

when a player leaves, their buildings go into "Disappearing" mode for 5 turns (seen by the pick-axe).

So it counts down, 5-4-3-2-1, and then the building disappears from the map.

BUT, if you attack or attempt take-over BEFORE it disappears, the countdown resets back to 5.
So if it says "Disappearing in 2 turns", and you attack it, it will go back to "Disappearing in 5 turns".

This means those buildings will not disappear if someone attacks or attempts takeover. And it gives you 5 turns to do what you want to do.

REQ, Thanks for your post. I thought I was imagining that a couple pallisades had reset to the 'Disappearing in 5 turns'. I almost posted a bug report. I strongly agree with this change as it contributes to lessen the loss of experiencing a quitting enemy(more of his remaining buildings can be taken...at least some reward for defeating him).

yep a great update

castle disappaering in 5 turn and not 12 is the best if u ask me

Gentlemen, I'm not sure that Req's statement(concerning bldgs), included the acual castle. We'll need to hear from him on that unless one of you have spoken to him personally concerning this.

yeah includes all so u better have tried to take over the floor or it will dissapear the idea is to cut down on innactive castles

ok take this discussion to general stuff or questions. Not notices.

to the change that in 5 turns the player becomes inactive........( It may present some problems for some people....There was a thread about this and how it affects Ultra games in the suggestion box thread..................
.....For example, in my case i use a public library computer and can't get to the game at night till early morning...(5 pm to 10 am the next morning) ............
.....Thats a total of 17 hours or 8 turns.....If its all the same to you can you extend the minimum turns for being declared inactive from 5 to maybe 15.....................
.....It shouldn't affect those people who can get to a computer quickly but to those people who use a public library computer, those could use the extra hours to remain in the game...............................................
.....If it puts me at a disadvantage, it doesn't matter because i can then still play the game.....................
......In summary, can you extend the hours before being declared inactive so that some people can remain in the game........thank you....
