Previously there was a complicated interlocking set of continents which provided the peculiar progression of values. Now the code is simpler, but at first glance I am not convinced that it is equivalent to the old code or that it provides the numbers listed on the map legend. I will investigate further and let you know what I find.

EDIT:

Okay, since this XML has been up for a month at least, if the bonuses were not working properly, there would have been a great hue and cry, and what I read in the XML Guide has straightened me out (when all else fails, RTFM). So the problem is that BOB does not understand how to report collections. Okay, that goes on the list of things to fix.

I'm on my dad's new laptop and I've installed BOB and the greasemonkey.
The problem I'm having is that when I get a message or try to access the forums it says I need to log in, even though when I return to my games i'm still logged in.
What have I done wrong?
Thanks

I was unable to install BOB on my new computer despite trying all the suggestions: re-install Greasemonkey, clean reinstall Firefox, cut and paste the text field, etc.

What finally worked was" I clicked on "Help" in the Firefox menu bar and , then selected the second option "Troubleshooting Information", then lastly clicked the button at the top right "Reset Firefox". It saved my cookies and bookmarks, everything else was cleared out, including Greasemonkey, which did not occur when I ran the clean Firefox re-install. I then followed the install Greasemonkey and install BOB links provided at the beginning of this thread.

Just wanted to throw this out there for anyone else who may be having this problem. Ender 516: thanks for your help, you got me past the initial BOB install issue I was having that I couldn't figure out, just wanted to pass this fix on to you in case someone else runs in to this problem.

Whenever I go to any of my games it goes to parsing XML and never completes.

Firefox 20.0.1

Any Ideas?

That's related to changes implemented this past weekend -- moving the Round number label to the right of the screen, and moving the BOB buttons to make room for advertisements for freemiums. There are a few different topics floating around the forum about the havoc it's causing for BOB users and clickable maps.

Q&A Topic about it too

You're definitely not alone! The best solution I've seen proposed so far is to turn off BOB, take your turn, turn BOB back on, then take your snapshot, in cases where the BOB buttons have moved below the map.
