Added None, 20, 30, 50, 100 to the poll and enabled change of vote

Based on feedback collected by our Community Manager and game stats (only 0.1% of games make it to round 100) I propose that we switch up the round limits to make them more flexible. The new limits would be:

None, 20, 30, 40, 50

Any 100 Round Limit games would be converted to 50 (so far that won't ...

Thanks for helping out, KB!

Remember the good old days when I did all the multi hunting myself? You would always be sending me suspects in private and almost all of the time they came up guilty in my "multi hunting tool". You were the ultimate informant

With round limits, the game will automatically finish at the end of the specified round. The winner will be the surviving player with the most troops. If there is a tie, it will be broken based on the most regions. If there is still a tie, the winner is selected based on join order . When playing a ...

What about team games? Is the winner decided by total amount of troops of the team, or does the team that has the "winning player" win?

I updated the instructions:

With round limits, the game will automatically finish at the end of the specified round. The winner will be the surviving player ...

No, it uses the troup count from in-game stats

If troop numbers are equal it is somewhat arbitrary that the game creatoir wins, surely we can have a draw in this situation (no points for anyone)?

Well, if all players deadbeat at the same round, they are processed in join order and the last player to join wins. As you will see in my next ...

Done!

I don't see anything in our logs, s3xt0y. It looks like your internet setup.

It's officially on my to-do list!

Today we went live with a bunch of basic improvements to Conquer Club:

Playing spoils
This part of the game was very confusing for new receruits and we sometimes got support requests from users who can't figure out how to play a set. Now the in-game instructions have been clarified and error ...

I'm not sure what that means, my guess is that it's your connection.

For a couple of months now there has been a lockup of games when the dice history is crunched each morning at around 5:10am CC Time. I managed to reduce the lockup period from a couple minutes to about 30 seconds. I will have to take down the database sometime and de-fragment the dice history data ...

Back in August of 2006, our beloved banana-eating AndyDufresne had already spent 3 months volunteering as the first Foundry Foreman, when I approached him with an offer for a job. We needed someone to help with the behind-the-scenes grunt work, and Andy had already proven to be capable and dedicated ...

I just fixed a longstanding bug where skipping to a page number in game finder results using Internet Explorer will give an error. I also fixed a similar bug in the Conquer Club API.

Unfortunately to correct these bugs we had no choice but to make changes that are not compatible with some community ...

Today I updated the 2011 World Cup map, and it changed the gameplay affecting many games including two tournaments. I shouldn't have applied that update to ongoing games just like that, and I failed to read the instructions provided to me by samuelc812. This was pretty stupid of me and I take full ...

I reverted back to the regular dice until the soccer dice are fixed.

It had to do with the database query. Anyways, Join A Speed game is fixed and speedy now

I cant play speed games anymore because the join a speed game page takes forever to load, and i have about 4 seconds of lag between anything that i do.


EDIT: when I ping CC, i get about 74ms of lag

Hm... I can speed up the join a speed game page but then it will show only public speed games. I ...

This is pretty much Done!

Doc_Brown's idea is great!
