Re: Defered troops - what is rationale for this?

I disagree - it's not enough to say players should simply be preferred for the deferred troops. The problem is this: when someone is missing turns, some players often assume that player is NOT returning. Because once someone starts missing turns, people make different judgements about whether that ...

Re: Limit games for foe list abusers and jerks.

I foe people who (1) are really abusive in chat, (2) get busted cheating and (3) can't handle multi-player game negotiations and go nuts when weaker players band together to fight the strongest, or (4) use bully / suicide tactics.

Over 6000 games played, there's been a bunch. So my foe list is big ...

account sharing

Question: if I have a premium account, can I share it with someone that has a freemium, so that person can play speed games when I'm not using it?

Re: Defered troops - what is rationale for this?

The deferred troops rule needs to go. It's the dumbest feature of CC. Nothing provokes as much annoyance in other players than watching a turn missing player return and move into an advatnaged position *specically* due to the extra deployment. Happens all the time, and plenty of people skip turns on ...

Re: Random Map / Random Map settings

This is a great idea, but I think we might need to set it around TYPE of random map, possibly organized by map complexity.

So random simple maps (with standard, territory-based bonuses, no autodeploys, no bombarding and no one-way traffic)

Medium maps (with one or two twists - like feudal ...

Re: Btown Ratings and Gamechat Abuse

As a starting point, we we really need is a "minimum ranking to join" setting for games. So when you start a game, you could set it to 4.0 - and every player with a rating under that couldn't join. So quickly, the true jerks on this site would start missing out on lots of game. Finally we'd give ...

Not only should this be BUSTED, but CC needs to have a game termination rule. When cheating is found during a LIVE game, the game should be terminated, with no points lost by the victims

Why on earth you are recommended he leave me a bad rating and foe me? Endurance took a big early lead in a 3 man game (much of it at my expense) and then the two weaker players tried to fight back.

Better advice would be: learn how to play three man games more effectively but not going for a big ...

Sorry, I can only prove he tried to cheat in my game. If evidence of cheating in multiple games is needed, I don't have that. Although given he is blocked from playing with his former mutli/secret alliance pals, you'd think this would be classified a second offense!

Re: btown101

Usually, the accusation of being a multi is based on a single person playing in the same game with multiple accounts. In your game, btown101 is clearly playing with only 1 account and is by definition not a multi, unless you are accusing him of also playing your account, in which case you're both ...
