I suggested this the the last time a similar thread was up, but...

How about a time limit?

Only games that have lasted (Insert huge amount here) of hours can use the option.
I doubt anyone will try to freely learn any games with that in effect.

For a premium clan player who has the capability of abusing this system as stated, this would not be a major issue, since it only takes a few seconds to take your turn each day once they got bored with the map and they can have dozens of other games going in the mean time.

You could also prevent a draw option in private games, although of course a clan could still create a public team game and do the same thing if they're quick about it.

As has been said many, many, many times before.

Rejected due to previous abuse.

like i sugested many times, tie abuse will be eliminated,if you add that after 100 rounds , tie button will be activated, and then ,only if all players agree ,game could be announce to be tie. Ofcourse,these only work,when you have minimum of 3 players still alive,if these drop to 2 player, tie button are blocked.

Did previous abuse include players accepting the tie still losing points? Noone would give into a tie and lose points if they had a chance to win and gain points.

It's not really a game. I've got one game where I'm training my kids to take over because I think it will outlast my lifetime. What we need is a "REQUEST TIE" button. Any player presses it, and the others can respond on their next turn (anonymously). If everyone agrees, the points are split equally as if they were a team. But everyone has to agree.

It might be that "Tie-able / One Winner" might be an option like "Manual / Automatic", so players who didn't want this could avoid those games.


If no points were split, I'd think this might fly.

But splitting points seems unfair if they're not going to play the game out like the first 5 did.

So as long as it is not a true stalemate the game won't be stopped.


I think the tie option would be abused if there wasn't a small penalty behind it. I want ties to only happen in true to god stalemates. Not because players set up games to learn maps with friends, then after a few rounds, utilize the tie feature just to nullify the game so that noone loses points.


Exactly. This would simply result in friends playing games AS IF POINTS WERE NOT COUNTED, with the agreement to ditch the game as it neared it's end. For instance, the big outcry against "no points games" is that people can then figure out a map without risking anything. Well, implementing this would result in precisely the same thing happening.

Allow Premium Members to play live games...

Postby Metricsystemlove on Tue Aug 30, 2011 3:03 am

Concise description:
After purchasing premium, members should be able to play live games on the site with a friend in the room, off of the same computer. I know the quick answer would be to tell a friend to go freemium, and play your friends this way. However, this would involve constant logging in and out of CC with different usernames and passwords, making it look like you would be a multi using the same IP address.


Specifics/Details:
While playing Live Games, your score/rank will not be affected.


How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
This will bring new people to the site, plain and simple. Countless times as a member of CC, a friend has come over to my house, and they see me totally addicted to CC. I tell them all about it, they become interested, but they can't play. They watch me play it. I suggest that they start a fremium account, but they never do. This could also work within the confines of the referral program, there could be a question such as: "Were you referred to CC by an active user?"

Its a nice Idea but I believe the idea of offline gaming, has been suggested and dumped before?

My entire reason for suggesting this is that any offline gaming, will more often than not lead to online gaming. Conquer Club is great, and I believe that this will lead to more business for the site.

Also, I tried searching for a suggestion like this, but I couldn't think of the proper wording for it.

I also think this has been suggested and rejected before.. But I am not sure why

All it would do is add to the member-base! I showed my friend the site yesterday, she thought it was cool, but wouldn't take the time to make an account and try to learn how to play on her own. If live games was implemented, I could have started a game with her and showed her how to play instantly, potentially getting her addicted to join CC
rds is awesome!

Moving to REJECTED because of potential to intentionally use this feature for no-points games.

Friendly games

Concise description:
  • Have option to play a friendly game where no points are awarded or lost.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • would allow users to play new maps they normally wouldn't for fear of not understanding how to play.
