RSW

Ah, you're right. I'll reverse them. I get confused because the Linux convention, for reasons of unknown frustration, is the opposite of the Windows convention. I've generally been following the Windows convention in the RSW client. You're kidding. I guess that's yet another reason that Linux can't...

I've also been having trouble with the client not recognizing the correct status of my games (this has happened in multiple versions). For instance, I'm involved in two games currently, and the status listed in the RSW Game List window is "Your Turn", when in fact I have already submitted ...

I'm always up for fresh code.

The new dialog that asked me if I wanted to upgrade was a little odd, though, in that No was on the left and Yes was on the right. Usually it's the other way around.

Fixed now.

Indeed, while Opera supports CSS, it interprets a few things slightly differently from the other browsers. I found a suitable fix and checked it in, and published it to the server. Oops. Didn't notice your post before I responded. However, right now the listMyActive and listMyGames pages are giving...

It looks similar in Firefox, IE, Safari, and lynx, which are all the browsers I've tried it on. Glancing through the server logs, I'm guessing you're using Opera. Does Opera not support CSS? Opera definitely supports CSS, and is generally one of the most standards compliant browsers available. Afte...

Awesome. I'm especially happy for the new game notification and the number of players yet to submit orders info. In addition to the "you're the only player who hasn't submitted orders" notification discussed in the other thread, I was thinking perhaps there should be a warning email sent t...

I like these 2: * Send a "hey, you're holding everyone up" email to the last player in a given turn to submit orders. * On the game page, report the number of players who have yet to enter orders. I agree. I think these two would be effective and have no downside. I think it's dangerous t...

Can the position be taken over by an account already in the game?

How are in-game interactions affected? Do the worlds and fleets become neutral, or is it just as if the player has simply stopped submitting orders, and alliances etc. remain intact?

I can see that. On the other hand, the first few turns are the most important turns not to miss--if you miss one of the first few turns, you may be at a disadvantage for the rest of the game, because you missed out on the land grab. And if you find yourself at a disadvantage, you may become discour...

That's usually the biggest value of the "quick turns" feature, to let the first few turns go by quickly, since most people can get their first turns in promptly. However, this is a twelve-person game, and it only takes one person dragging their heels to pull the turn out to its full durat...

You're killing me. I've been gently prodding people at Schell Games to get their turns in so the second turn would start. It's kind of rough when this is your first game and you're ready to dive in and start playing, but instead of water, you find you've dived into a thick, clinging pool of mud. I c...

Last paragraph on I-Ships and P-Ships page: "If an enemy tries to send your fleet through one or more of your worlds" should probably be: "If an enemy tries to send their fleet through one or more of your worlds", or, to be hyper-grammatically-correct: "If an enemy tries to ...
