Show Text instead of Status Indicators

Postby GreenfireStorm on Tue Mar 07, 2006 10:47 am

On the My Games menu, the yellow and green are exactly the same for me(Color blind...) and it's hard to pick them out in a group of 10 games.

What I'd like is an option for text to be shown rather than the little light. This will also help people trying to find active turns because they could use the search function to go down the list.

colourblind?

Postby Pedronicus on Sun Mar 12, 2006 8:13 am

You have to hand it to people who are colourblind who play colour based games.

Are there any deaf people out there with a large collection of music CD's?

or people with no tongue with a telephone.

or people with no head, with a large collection of hats?

I hear ya Greenfire. I have the same problem. I also have a difficult time seeing the difference between the pink and purple colours, or are they blue and pink or blue and purple. Guess I just wont join in a 6 player game as the 3rd or 6th player......lol

Do you guys use firefox, I could code something to help you guys out.

ie... R3 on locations to indicate who owns what... and then status indicators would be G Y R for Green Yellow Red

Would that work for you?
