[GP/UI] Automatic Game Start Snapshots

[Foxglove]

This would eliminate the advantage veterans have against new players, and it solves the fog rule problem, i like it.

Great point about veterans and new players! I'm going to add that to the list above.

[sjnap]

Our Foxy has always great ideas. Excellent point sweety

[iAmCaffeine]

+1 and a bit.

[Shannon Apple]

I like this suggestion, Foxy. =)

Also, anything that promotes fairness to newer players and gives a better chance of them sticking around should be implemented imo.

[JaneAusten]

I think this would be a fine update at well ! =)

[IcePack]

Looks great to me

[BoganGod]

This would be amazing, especially if it worked across different browsers. Would even the playing field and speed the game up. Forget no attacks on first turn why did that get a poll thread in general. Put this to a vote!!!!!

[GoranZ]

Valuable proposal
I will only add... automatic snapshots to be implemented within Game Log.

Yes, that makes perfect sense. I will add that to the OP.

[ChrisPond]

I like this!

[Bruceswar]

As already said... this would be good

[koontz1973]

15 posts, all saying how great this would be. Lets do it.

[Astoriana]

count me in koontz it's 16 votes in favour
go for it Angela. I like your idea very much
I'll just add: our last game triples Rorke's Drift started without giving us the opportunity to see the map and take a snap
I kindly asked team 2 to give us their move - will see how they'll respond

[casper]

Make that 17. Please implement this! Thanks.

I like this suggestions and I'm glad that you got a lot of your clan mates to come and post they like it as well. However, this is not a new idea. So, it's getting MERGED.

MERGED: Implement game state snapshots as part of the site

Unfortunately, my suggestion is not to "Make BOB part of the site."

My suggestion is for the implementation of a single function that BOB currently provides. I think a suggestion to "Make BOB part of the site" is not nearly specific enough for suggestions in this forum.

Ideally, the suggestions moderators should be encouraging and promoting the discussion of singular pieces of functionality. Doing so will make life much simpler for the admin to pick and choose which suggestions to implement, based on whatever time table and vision bigWham has. "Make BOB part of the site" provides no specific suggestions about what features are valuable nor what the benefits would be to the site and its users.

Can you please un-merge these topics?

[Agent 86]

Everything about Bob is invaluable to me, it has made the game so much better. So add me to the list, it's by far the best add-on ever!!

By the way snaps are mandatory in all team games I play..so so important for clans.

You are correct that it is better to discuss specific implementation options. I have renamed the topic accordingly.

[Foxglove]

Thank you!

[Foxglove]

So everyone seems to like this suggestion, and there haven't been any criticisms or concerns. What's the next step?

[Metsfanmax]

I'd like to have some input from blake on the technical issues involved in such a change.

[Armandolas]

I support this 110%
But how could someone read that snap without bob installed? Would that mean a similar feature to "take snap in chat"(like the one in BoB) get implemented officially by CC?
If so, then i support 200%

Yes - that is the idea: that CC would provide the mechanism for both taking and viewing snapshots.

[Foxglove]

I still support this truly fantastic suggestion.

[Foxglove]

This is still an awesome suggestion.

There is no question of its usefulness and value to CC players. The only question is one of development effort, and surely that should be judged by the admin when considering when and whether to implement it.
